Code R. 62-330.301(1)(e), and Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-330.302, pursuant to Florida Statutes § 373.414(17) A person seeking a variance under Florida Statutes § 373.414(17), must demonstrate that any hardship asserted as a basis of the need for a variance is peculiar to the affected property and not self-imposed, and that the grant of a variance will be consistent with the general intent and purpose of this chapter.

1. The petitioner’s name and signature;
2. The statute or rule from which the variance is sought;
3. Facts showing that a variance should be granted for one of the reasons in Florida Statutes § 403.201;
4. The time period for which the variance is sought, including the reasons and facts supporting the time period;
5. The requirements the petitioner can meet, including the date or time when the requirements will be met;
6. The steps or measures the petitioner is taking to meet the requirement from which the variance is sought. If the request is pursuant to Section 403.201(1)(b), F.S., the petitioner shall include a schedule when compliance will be achieved; and
7. The fee prescribed in Fl. Admin. Code R. 62-330.071
(b) The Agency shall review the application within 30 days after receipt to determine if the petition is complete. If the petition is determined to be incomplete, the petitioner shall be afforded an opportunity to supply additional information before the Agency evaluates the petition.

For variance petitions processed by the Department, the petitioner shall also publish notice of intended agency action one time, at its expense, in a newspaper of general circulation, as defined in Florida Statutes § 50.031, in the county in which the property for which the variance is sought is located. For variance petitions processed by the District, the District will cause the notice of intended agency action to be published, one time, in a newspaper of general circulation, as defined in Florida Statutes § 50.031, in the county in which the property for which the variance is sought is located.
