Hearings
Florida
Statute 403.50665(4) allows a substantially affected party to file a
petition for hearing on a local government’s land use determination only
as it applies to the Turkey Point
Site and Associated Facilities. The
hearing provides an opportunity for substantially affected parties to give
testimony on how the proposed project is inconsistent with a specific
city’s or the county’s land use plan and zoning ordinances.
If petitions for hearing are filed by September 25, 2009, the
Administrative Law Judge would schedule a hearing on land use on October 2,
2009.
Florida
Statute 403.508(3)( c) allows non-listed agencies and public interest groups
to file a notice of intent by September 14, 2009, to become a party to the
proceeding. The final
certification hearings provide an opportunity for any person to present oral
or written communication regarding the project, to the designated
Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). Any communication presented will become
official record. If the Certification Schedule is not delayed, the hearing
will be held from March 22, 2010 through April 20, 2010, according to
403.508(2)(a), F.S.
FINAL
DISPOSITION OF APPLICATION

conclusion of the certification hearings, the ALJ will make a recommendation
based on the evidence presented at the Certification Hearing.
The recommendation will be forwarded to the Governor and his Cabinet
for approval.
