NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on February 18, 2009, the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Hotels and Restaurants has issued an order.
A Routine Variance for subparagraph 61C-1.002(5)(a)2., Florida Administrative Code, from Street Corner Dogs Hot Dog Cart located in Neptune Beach. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that a mobile food dispensing vehicle be vehicle mounted on axles. The Petitioner is requesting a variance to install casters on the unit rather than axle-mounted tires in order to make the unit otherwise movable from place to place. The request was originally published in the Florida Administrative Weekly in Vol. 35, No. 6 on February 13, 2009.
This variance was approved on February 18, 2009, contingent upon the Petitioner maintaining the casters in good repair. No additional equipment is to be installed including, but not limited to, tables, chairs or non-attached cooking equipment. The unit must report to its commissary each day of operation for access to a three-compartment sink for washing and sanitizing equipment and utensils. 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: Rhonda.Steele@DBPR.state.fl.us.
