Notices

Notice of Variance

The Florida Department of Transportation hereby gives notice that on November 16, 2022, 3N Outdoor Media, Inc. filed a request for a variance from Rule 14-10.004(7)(d), Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), which directs that no sign permit shall be issued for a sign to be located outside the boundaries of an incorporated municipality and within 500 feet of an interchange, intersection at grade, or rest area on the interstate.  A copy of the request may be obtained and any comments may be submitted to the Agency Clerk at FDOT.AgencyClerk@dot.state.fl.us.

On December 19, 2022, The Florida Department of Transportation (DOT) entered an Order Granting Petition for Variance from Rule 14-73.001, F.A.C., to the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (SFRTA). On September 30, 2022, SFRTA requested a variance to the deadline for adoption of SFRTA’s Five-Year Transit Development Plan (TDP) update. Notice of the Petition for Variance was published on October 10, 2022, in Vol. 48, No. 197 of the Florida Administrative Register. DOT granted the variance, because SFRTA demonstrated that the strict application of Rule 14-73.001, F.A.C., would create a substantial hardship on Petitioner, and DOT determined that a one-year extension of the TDP deadline promoted the effective use of transportation resources in developing the Five-Year update to the TDP. No comments were received on the request for variance. A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained from the Clerk of Agency Proceedings, Department of Transportation, 605 Suwannee Street, MS 58, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0458, FDOT.AgencyClerk@dot.state.fl.us.
