(1) Permit Period. All permits shall expire annually on December 31. However, initial permits approved after September 30, will expire December 31 of the year following approval.
(2) Permit Fees.
(a) Annual fees for participation in the Logo Sign Program are computed based upon the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) at each interchange, the population of the area surrounding the interchange, market conditions, and the costs of the program. The following charts show the groupings for both AADT and population:
AADT Grouping
Population Grouping
>
<= Group >=
< Group 0 30,000 0 0 5,000 1 30,000 75,000 1 5,000 2 75,000 175,000 2 175,000 3 The following chart shows the weighted values assigned to each factor: Fee Formula Factors AADT 230 Population 400 Cost 1000 The fee for each interchange is computed as follows: (AADT Group x AADT Factor) + (Population Group x Population Factor) + Cost Factor Under no circumstances shall calculated fee exceed $3500.00 for an interchange in an urban area, or $2,000.00 for an interchange outside an urban area. Example: For an interchange with an AADT of 60,000 and a population of 75,000, the fee is computed as follows: AADT Group = 1 Population Group = 2 (1 x 230) + (2 x 400) + 1000 = $2,030 The fees calculated above are for a mainline logo sign and ramp logo signs in both directions of the limited access facility. At interchanges where the configuration only allows access to the business in a single direction, one mainline logo sign and one ramp logo sign will be provided and the fee will be one-half (1/2) that computed for both directions. (b) An annual permit fee of $1,300.00 is established for all interchanges located within the boundaries of rural communities designated as within a rural area of opportunity as defined by Sections 288.0656(2)(d) and (e), F.S. The list of rural communities and areas designated as rural area of opportunity is published by the Department of Economic Opportunity. The rural area of opportunity status will be that which is in effect at the time the invoice for either the initial or renewal billing for participation in the Logo Sign Program is generated. If a rural area of opportunity designation is secured subsequent to the generation of the invoice, no refund, credit, or pro rata distribution of funds received by the Department for that year will be made to the permittee. (c) Payment of permit fees shall be by U.S. currency, postal money order, bank draft, cashier's check, personal check, or business check. If a personal or business check is not honored for any reason by the bank on which it is drawn, the application for which the fee was submitted will be denied. If an individual or company issues two or more checks to the Department or Program Administrator that are not honored, no further personal or business checks will be accepted from that individual or company, regardless of whether restitution has been made on previous checks.
(d) The permit fee will be prorated with 1/12 of the permit fee charged for each month or portion thereof remaining in the calendar year after the date of approval of an application. The fee for an application approved after September 30 will also include the fees for the next calendar year.
(3) When a participating business wishes to change a business logo, there will be a $100 change-out fee for each business logo, payable in advance.
(4) Initial Permit Application. A business applying to display a business logo must submit a completed Logo Application on Form 575-070-35, Rev. 3/12, incorporated by reference at https://www.flrules.org/Gateway/reference.asp?No=Ref-05110, to the Program Administrator.
(5) Completed applications will be acted upon within 30 days of receipt. Written notice of the decision will be furnished to the applicant.
(6) Permit fees must be received by the Program Administrator within 30 days of the notification of permit approval.
(7) After notification of approval, the applicant shall be responsible for providing the Program Administrator with all required business logo signage.
(8) The business logo will be affixed to the display panel within 30 days of receipt of the business logo or the permit fee, whichever is later.
(9) When space is not available on a logo structure for a qualified business, the business will be placed on a waiting list in each individual category in the order in which the application was received. When space becomes available, notice will be provided to the business with the highest priority, providing the business 30 days within which to submit an updated application for processing.
