61C-1.002: Licensing and Inspection Requirements
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on August 05, 2009, the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants has issued an order.
The department received a Petition on June 26, 2009 for a routine Variance for subparagraph 61C-1.002(5)(a)2., Florida Administrative Code, from Vend PSL located in Port St. Lucie. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that a mobile food dispensing vehicle be a vehicle that is otherwise movable. They are requesting to mount the mobile food dispensing vehicle on casters rather than an axle.
This variance request was published in Vol. 35, No. 2, July 24, 2009. However, on August 5, 2009 the variance order was corrected and approved contingent upon the Petitioner maintaining the casters in good repair. No additional equipment is to be installed. The unit must report to its commissary each day of operation for support services. The operation of this unit is restricted to the Home Depot, 220 Southwest Gatlin Boulevard, Port St. Lucie. Any violation of the variance is the equivalent of a violation of the Rule and may result in a rescission of the variance and subject the Petitioner to disciplinary sanctions as enumerated in Section 509.261, Florida Statutes.
A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Lydia.Gonzalez@dbpr.state.fl.us, Division of Hotels and Restaurants, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1011.
