Boca Raton Lawsuit Seeks to Block Controversial ‘Save Boca’ Land Ordinances from Ballot By Kartik Krishnaiyer asserts that these claims are “outrageous falsehoods,” with no public record, vote, or statistic to support them, constituting a “fraud upon the public” and an abuse of the electoral process. Ambiguity and Chaos Predicted Beyond the claims of fraud, the lawsuit argues that the proposed language is so vague and contradictory that it would be “unworkable” if passed. The complaint points out the confusing phraseology in the restriction: “greater than one-half (0.5) acre, or any part thereof.” According to the plaintiff, this ambiguity would lead to endless legal disputes over whether a public vote is required for nearly every property transaction.

FAITH

By C.C. Simpson

By Rick Warren

The modern marketplace runs on giftedness. Strategic thinkers. Visionary entrepreneurs. High-performing executives. If you can move the needle, you’re given the platform. Your résumé becomes your brand. Your results become your worth. I’ve met leaders who can close the deal in the morning, turn a profit by lunch, and still have time to headline a conference before dinner. They are the kind of people others look at and think, That’s the standard. And in purely business terms, it is. But in Kingdom terms? Not necessarily. Because Jesus tells us in Matthew 23:19, the gift isn’t what makes something sacred. The altar does. He was talking to religious leaders who had it backward. They were obsessed with the gift, how polished it looked, how impressive it sounded, while neglecting the altar. And the altar is where something dies. It’s where ambition is laid down. It’s the place of surrender, where your offering becomes holy precisely because it is laid down. That’s not just temple talk from the first century. That’s Monday morning reality in every boardroom, startup pitch, or quarterly review from Quito to Tainan and Miami to Abuja. I’ve lived this tension. The skills I honed during my years in the public sector—command presence, decisive leadership, the ability to perform under extreme pressure—were considered workplace gold. Those skills got me noticed. They opened doors. And for a while, I used them exactly the way the world told me to: to climb ladders, to earn approval, to prove I belonged at the table. And it worked. On paper, I was winning. But in the quiet moments, I realized those gifts, left to themselves, were empty. They didn’t carry eternal weight. Everything changed when I laid them before Christ. When I stopped asking, ‘How can these serve me?‘ and started asking, ‘How can they serve Him?’ That’s when my leadership stopped being transactional and started becoming transformational. The same instincts that once built my career began building people. The same drive that once secured my position began advancing

His Kingdom. That’s the pivot point: surrender. Because here’s the truth, your talent doesn’t become sacred just because it’s successful. A gifted leader can exceed every target and still miss the Kingdom. A visionary entrepreneur can scale their business and never glorify God. Even generosity can become self-serving if it’s about optics, not obedience. When you place your work, your strategy, your deal-making, your influence, on the altar of God’s purposes, everything shifts. It stops being about personal gain and starts being about eternal impact. Your leadership becomes worship. And that’s the difference between temporary applause and a lasting legacy. I’ve seen leaders with extraordinary capacity become a bottleneck to Kingdom work because they refused to surrender what God had given them. High capacity without high surrender is a dangerous combination—it feeds pride, isolates you from accountability, and blinds you to your true mission. To receive a gift is grace. To sharpen it is stewardship. But to lay it on the altar? That’s worship. That’s where your leadership becomes sacred ground. So here’s my challenge: Take an honest inventory of your gifts, your influence, and your platform. Ask yourself— are these tools in my hand to build my name, or are they on the altar to magnify His? Because in the end, only what is placed on the altar will last. © 2025. C.C.

Managing Stress through Friends and Fun!

High Capacity, Low Surrender?

Nov 13 - Nov 20, 2025

Editors C RON ALLEN DINI HEIZER KARTIK KRISHNAIYER

You were never intended to handle life’s stress alone—God made you for community. And you can’t keep going and going without a break—God made you to need rest and refreshment! Not even Jesus tried to do life on this earth by himself. He needed other people! The Bible says, “He chose twelve of them to be his apostles, so they could be with him” (Mark 3:14 CEV). Think about this: A lot of your stress stems from trying to manage life on your own rather than relying on fellow believers. That might work for a while, but what happens when times get tough? When life gets hard, you need to have a safety net in place already—people you can rely on to help carry your burdens. That’s what Jesus asked his friends to be for him. The night before he went to the cross, he went to a garden to pray and took a small group of his closest friends with him. He told them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me” (Matthew 26:38 NIV). In his most difficult moment, Jesus didn’t need his friends’ advice or even their words of comfort. He just needed their presence. And when times get tough, you need that, too. Jesus also knew that he needed to

take time for fun—to rest and to recharge. He had infinitely important work to do—he had come to be the Savior of the world, after all—but he still took time for fun. I love how the Phillips paraphrase describes Jesus: “The Son of Man came, enjoying life” (Matthew 11:19). He encouraged the people around him to take time to relax and take care of themselves, too. The Bible says this: “Crowds of people were coming and going so that Jesus and his followers did not even have time to eat. He said to them, ‘Come away by yourselves, and we will go to a lonely place to get some rest’” (Mark 6:31 NCV). Jesus understood that we’re not wired for continuous work; we have to take time to slow down. Are you feeling stretched thin and stressed out? Step back and take a look at your life. Are you connecting with other believers—making time for meaningful friendships and restorative fun? If not, remember the example of Jesus and make some changes so that you, too, can enjoy life! Talk It Over When have fellow believers helped relieve some of your stress? Whose stress do you need to help alleviate today? What does it mean to you to know that Jesus “came enjoying life”?

OPINION

By: Douglas G Logan

By: Tom Madden

I Am What I Am

From Police to Presidents, the Pleasure Serving Comes Mostly from Helping Others!

No apologies; no excuses. My name is Douglas, named for a Master Sergeant dad named Douglas, named for a World War I British General, Douglas Haig, leader of the Expeditionary Forces in Europe. My godfather, Arthur, was a Lieutenant in the Royal Canadian Army. My uncle, George, was a Lieutenant in the Army Air Corps, downed over the Netherlands. My brother, George, was a Tanker. Multiple uncles and cousins fought Fidel Castro at the Bay of Pigs. One, Roberto Macia, went on to fight with the 1st Cav in the Battle for Ia Drang in Vietnam. We show up. We were raised differently. It would never dawn on us to respond to a directive from my father with a “Why?” From an early age I was taught to accept that life sometimes ladles out discomfort, disappointment and hardships. I learned to adapt, tolerate and deal with it. I can go for long stretches without food, water or rest. Know that the short cut is not always the best path. I know that loyalty is a two way

street. That to lead with love results in better outcomes than to lead with fear. My relationships always begin by assuming the other is a good person, rather than by mistrust of motives. That we have different colored skins but our tears and our blood are the same hue. That empathy is a strength, not a weakness. To me, character matters, and that includes the candidates I vote for. The ends do not justify the means. I have tasted the bile in my mouth as I have charged into danger rather than run from it. I have a special place in my heart for the 9/11 fire fighters. I don’t complain and can’t abide whiners. I come to the field to compete. I know how to win and lose. I dream big. Sometimes they come true. There has always been tomorrow. I don’t waste time obsessing about doomsday. I am a Veteran. I have formed bonds with other men to tackle problems and situations that most cannot comprehend. I have been both lucky and blessed. I’m still standing. I am a Veteran. No apologies; no excuses.

Of all President Trumps wheeling and dealing, watching his signing this latest deal with Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, I couldn’t help thinking perhaps this gave him the most pleasure. It reminded me of what a police officer friend once told me that his greatest pleasure came not from arresting people but helping them. How true! Even in sexual encounters, many would agree pleasing a loved one can be just as self-gratifying, sometimes maybe even more so for often we love to give more than receive. Last week the President gave a lot and had noticeable pleasure announcing a deal to drastically lower the price of weight loss drugs for millions of Americans. “Today, I’m thrilled to announce that the two world’s largest pharmaceutical manufacturers, Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk, have agreed to offer their most popular GLP-1 weight loss drug — I call it the fat drug, remember (joke) — at drastic discounts,” the president said in the Oval Office. Mr. Trump has previously floated the possibility of lower prices for weight loss drugs and expressed dismay about the high costs. “I call it the fat pill or the fat drug,” he said at an event on drug prices in September. Now Trump got Eli Lilly, the maker of Zepbound, and Novo Nordisk, the company behind Ozempic and Wegovy, to agree to lower the price of their weight loss drugs for eligible patients on Medicare, Medicaid and for eligible users of the planned “TrumpRx” pharmaceutical website. Sizeable Reduction The price per month for most eligible people will be $245 to $350 a month on average, administration officials said. The cost now is as high as $1,350 per month. Mr. Trump said Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk also agreed to provide all their other medications at “most-favored-nation” prices, meaning Americans will pay a competitively low price like the consumers in other countries do. Deal Details

www.bocaratontribune.com

TrumpRx, which is expected to launch as early as the end of this year, will allow customers to buy prescription drugs directly from pharmaceutical companies without going through insurance. When purchased through TrumpRx, the cost will be about $350 per month for injections of Ozempic and Wegovy, officials told reporters and that pricing will go into effect in January. If the Food and Drug Administration later approves similar GLP-1 drugs intended to be taken orally, the initial dose of those pills will be $149 per month through TrumpRx, officials said. For eligible patients on Medicaid and Medicare, officials said the cost will be $245 for Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and Zepbound. The Medicare copay is $50. Administration officials hope the new pricing kicks in for Medicare in mid-2026, likely by July. For Medicaid, the timing will be based on states’ willingness to participate. Obesity rampant About 40% of Americans are obese, according to CDC data, though a recent survey suggests the rate has started to decline. Research shows obesity is one of the leading causes of preventable deaths in the United States. So, it’s not about just losing weight, but making America healthy again by preventing strokes and end-stage renal disease. Reportedly, other prescription drug websites, such as GoodRx, won’t be partnering with TrumpRx and pharmaceutical companies will decide how to fulfill consumers’ orders. Tom Madden is an author whom you might say is obese, only his obesity bulges with ideas for his blogs, books and press releases so it’s not accumulating body fat, but aptitude muscle. It was his greatest pleasure to start his own public relations firm, TransMedia Group, when he left NBC, mostly to give his family rewarding, self-fulling jobs helping client’s businesses to flourish from publicity. Today his daughter Adrienne Mazzone is president of the firm, and he’s the CEO. Nov 13 - Nov 20, 2025

Veteran Voices Take The Stage at ‘Red, White, & Boca’ By Caris Weinberg Tuesday evening, the City of Boca Raton hosted Red, White, and Boca, a Veterans Day celebration at the Mizner Park Amphitheater. The four-hour event featured live music by the Coastman Chorus, the American Bombshells, and the Samantha Russell Band, as well as guest speakers including Mayor Scott Singer, City Manager Mark Sohaney, Madeline “Maddy” Mollach, John Schrey, and David Cohen. The celebration also included vendors, some of which were veteran-owned businesses, organizations that assist veterans, and a car show. Audience members included veterans, their families, children, and other community members, all gathered to show respect for those who served. Mayor Scott Singer opened the event by reading the Veterans Day Proclamation. “May we honor all of our veterans through a greater commitment to support, help, and serve all who have provided the blessings of liberty,” he said. For Mark Sohaney, Boca Raton’s city manager and a retired U.S. Navy officer, it was his first Veterans Day out of uniform in 37 years. He spoke about his transition from military ser-

vice to civic duty, highlighting Boca Raton as a Purple Heart City. “Veterans bring far more than their past service. They bring leadership, perspective, and a spirit of giving back that strengthens our neighborhoods, our schools, our businesses, and our government,” Sohaney said. He also recognized the sacrifices of veterans’ families, including relocations, deploy-

ments, and missed celebrations, and encouraged the community to show appreciation through action. Madeline “Maddy” Mollach, a U.S. Air Force veteran and commander of American Legion Post 277, encouraged the audience to honor veterans every day, not just on Veterans Day, noting that they are neighbors, friends, and family members. “When you see

someone wearing a veteran’s hat, say thank you for your service. Open a door for someone. Smile. Ask them how they’re doing,” she said. David Cohen, a retired U.S. Air Force officer and dean of the College of Aeronautics at Lynn University, shared experiences from humanitarian missions and combat coordination, emphasizing the lasting bonds among veterans. “At the end of the day, those in uniform—yesterday, today, and tomorrow—share a bond of duty, faithfulness, and purpose. That bond, like the desire for freedom, is everlasting,” he said. Cohen said Veterans Day is about coming together with a unified purpose. John Schrey, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and national director of military affairs at Haven Health, focused on honoring fallen comrades and supporting veterans’ mental health. He paid tribute to friends lost after their service and stressed the importance of asking for help and using community resources. “We cannot continue to lose these warriors—these heroes—these men and women who were willing to give their lives and come home. But we need to know that you’re struggling,” Schrey said.

Who else but Men Giving Back would have a wheel-spinning tradition of handing out their biggest grants, in this case $100,000 to four winning charities. That was an Oscar-like moment for the dozen non-profit grant finalists, as grant committee member and co-emcee Alex Price noted when all 12 gathered on stage for The Big Spin Wednesday night. And the winners were Kindness Matters 365 Feeding Florida’s Palm Beach County program Palm Beach County Food Bank Speak Up for Kids The current food shortage situation was duly noted.

Their focus is on education, children, food stability, and mental health services. Men Giving Back has awarded $3.5 million in grants so far, and more than a half-million dollars in 2025 alone, noted Price and co-emcee, ESPN Events/Boca Raton Bowl’s Paige Kornblue, who took turns introducing all the finalists before the spin.

FAU Reveals New Proposal to Increase Tuition for Out-of -State Students By Natalee Kruzich

Florida Atlantic University is considering raising the tuition cost for outof-state students by 15% starting in Fall 2026. FAU will propose this plan to the Board of Trustees at their meeting on Tuesday, November 18th, at 10 am. The meeting can be watched live online on the FAU Board of Trustees Homepage. If this proposal is approved, undergraduate non-resident fees would increase from $493.86 to $567.94 per credit hour. Graduate students would see fees rise from $623.80 to $717.37,

and College of Medicine students could pay $39,584 instead of $34,421. Luckily for students who are residents of Florida, their in-state tuition will not be affected. “The revenue generated by the proposed increase will help us continue to elevate our institution and provide the world-class experience our students deserve,” the university said in a statement. FAU hasn’t raised out-of-state fees in over a decade. Officials say the increase is meant to keep up with rising costs and make sure all students contribute fairly to the campus experience. FAU also stated they would assist negatively affected students with financial aid options if needed. Even with the tuition increase, FAU says it will remain one of the most affordable options for out-of-state students. However, many students have expressed their frustrations with this proposal, as tuition costs largely impact where they will attend college next year. This article was written by intern Natalee Kruzich under the supervision of Stacy Carchman.

Residences at Lake Worth Groundbreaking

A groundbreaking ceremony was held to officially launch the Residences at Lake Worth project, a partnership between Palm Beach County and The Richman Group of Florida, Inc., to deliver new affordable and workforce housing units in Lake Worth Beach. Palm Beach County is providing $13 million in Housing Bond funding to support the Residences at Lake Worth housing project. Residences at Lake Worth will consist of three 5-story buildings, including 195 units with brand new one, two, and three-bedroom apartments designated for households earning between Nov 13 - Nov 20, 2025

60% and 120% of the Area Median Income (AMI). The development will be certified under the National Green Building Standards Silver Certification, and will feature modern amenities, including a clubhouse, swimming pool, and 279 parking spaces. The site’s proximity to Palm Tran, Tri-Rail, and Interstate 95 connects residents with the resources and opportunities to thrive. Importantly, of the 195 new apartments being built, 164 are County-assisted units, which will remain affordable for no less than 50 years, ensuring long-term housing stability for residents. “This project reflects what we can achieve when public and private sectors come together with a shared purpose. Palm Beach County continues to advance strategic housing initiatives that promote growth, economic stability, and community well-being,” said Palm Beach County Administrator Joseph Abruzzo. “This project is a prime example of the power of public-private partnership.

Boynton Beach City Commission recognizes the Links at Boynton Beach PGA Hope Program By Stacy Carchman On November 4, the city commission made a proclamation for the Links at Boynton Beach PGA Hope Program. They highlighted the program’s impact on veterans and the community. The program teaches golf to veterans and provides them a sense of camaraderie and reintegration into daily life. The City of Boynton Beach supports the program, and the program helps change lives. One veteran who participates in the program said that it truly supports and creates a sense of camaraderie. He believes it helps transitioning from active duty to the reserves. It is a flagship military initiative that introduces golf to veterans and active-duty ser-

vice members as a means of enhancing their physical, mental, social and emotional well-being. The golf instruction is free and adaptive and is conducted by PGA certified professionals creating a therapeutic outlet that fosters confidence and community among participants of all backgrounds and abilities. The program has become a model of excellence and growth in the region. It has extended from just 13 original members to over 150 participants. The program demonstrates the power of sport, mentorship and fellowship in the successful reintegration of veterans into civilian life. The city will continue to support the program.

The Boynton Inn to be demolished to make room for redevelopment in Boynton Beach By Stacy Carchman You may be familiar with The Boynton Inn, a hotel that has stood through the years at the corner of I-95 and Boynton Beach Blvd. in Boynton Beach. Now, the City of Boynton Beach has bought the land that the hotel has occupied for $8 1 million. On October 1, 2025, the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (BBCRA) acquired the 2.11-acre property that is located at 480 W. Boynton Beach Blvd. It is situated west of Seacrest Blvd. and will be the site of future redevelopment. The BBCRA has been awarded a $75,000 grant through the Palm Beach County Sol-

id Waste Authority to help offset demolition costs. The CRA Plan calls for mixed-use and low-density residential developments with a pedestrian-friendly corridor. This will lead to a more vibrant and beautiful Boynton Beach. Many people who live on fixed incomes have been living at the hotel and some fear homelessness now that the hotel will be demolished. It has become a breeding ground for crime and an eyesore in recent years. The CRA is expected to hold community meetings to discuss the future use and redevelopment.

A video with Maria Shriver and a packed agenda of local and national experts will discuss how to serve the growing needs of an estimated 5.4 million kids who take full-time care of ill, elderly and disabled family members at American Association of Caregiving Youth Institute’s annual all-day conference in Boca on Thursday. Boca’s homegrown nonprofit with a national reach on this issue, AACY also just honored Boca philanthropist and volunteer Cindy Krebsbach and their own board member, Bank of America Private Bank senior v.p. Althea Ceasor at their annual Community Caregiver Awards. Krebsbach is known locally as a co-founder of Impact 100 Palm Beach County, the all-female group of grant givers. As a follow-up on the issue, the conference from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 13 at Safe Schools Institute is open to the public and the entrance fee includes breakfast and lunch, according to AACY founder and president Dr. Connie Siskowski. Here’s how to register and the schedule of speakers: https:// aacy.org/events/aacy-2024-caregiving-youth-institute-conference/ “I’m a fulltime caregiver for my 87-year-old mother. I can’t imagine being a teenager. This hit home for me,” Pulte Family Charitable Foundation’s scholarship coordinator Kate Fasullo said at the recent Community Caregiver brunch in the Broken Sound Club. Nov 13 - Nov 20, 2025

AACY partners with middle and high schoolers in 44 schools and estimates at least 10,00 students are caregivers in Palm Beach County alone, according to Siskowski. “You are not alone,” she said, adding their 98% graduation rate for the students who receive AACY services “throughout the calendar year.” “Being a young caregiver can be hard. We learn patience,” said AACY Ambassador Hantz Lafaille, a seventh-grader at South Tech Academy. “At AACY’s Camp Treasure I meet other kids who understand what I’m going through,” he said to applause. “Those children need that hands up, and those families need that support system,” said State Rep. Debra Tendrich. “We’re here today to support that critical mission.” “It’s the gift you give yourself,” for a life of service, said honoree Cindy Krebsbach. Ceasor was called away at the last minute and her long list of nonprofit work was cited, “for creating a culture of kindness.” “That’s what we’re here for,” she said via video. AACY board chair Debralyn Belletieri and vice chair Jeff Gordon were involved in the program, and Alex Price did the Call to the Heart and emceed. Eagles Landing Middle School Chorus directed by Roberto Vidal sang the National Anthem. Hats off to Lisa LaPato and Roz Tubbs, AACY’s intrepid interior design volunteers for the decor.

This and previous year’s low gross foursome winner, Alman said that trophy will be on display at his dental practice. He welcomed Rotary District Governor 6930 Marcia Gaedcke to help choose the raffle prizes at the luncheon’s finale. Introduced earlier to this reporter by Sunrise foundation chair Philip Lustig III, Gaedcke, whose home club is Rotary Titusville, talked about Rotary International’s ongoing commitment to polio eradication, especially now. “Back in the ‘80s, Rotary made a commitment to the children of the world,” she said to emphasis the ongoing campaign and promise.

ENTERTAINMENT Arts Garage Launches 2025 Annual Campaign With $20,000 Matching Gift Challenge By Marci Shatzman

Arts Garage, a Visual & Performing Arts Center in Downtown Delray Beach, has launched its 2025 Annual Campaign with a goal to raise $40,000 in support of its mission to make the

arts accessible for all. Longtime supporters Helen Rothlein and James White of The Compass Group at Morgan Stanley, along with Anita Perlman, a generous philanthropist and member of the Band of Angels at Arts Garage, have each pledged a $10,000 matching challenge—combining for a total of $20,000 in matching funds. Every contribution made before December 31, 2025 will be matched dollar-for-dollar, doubling its impact. “At Arts Garage, we believe the arts are for everyone,” said Marjorie Waldo, President & CEO of Arts Garage. “Our community’s ongoing generosity allows us to continue presenting world-class performances, offering scholarships, supporting local artists, and providing accessible arts education to all.”

The Annual Campaign—anchored by the theme “The Arts Matter!”—arrives at a pivotal time for arts and cultural organizations nationwide, many of which are facing shrinking public and private funding. Contributions to this year’s campaign will directly sustain Arts Garage’s hallmark community programs, including youth theatre camps, free ticket initiatives, visual arts exhibitions, and more. The Impact of Arts Garage (FY 2024–2025): 300+ performances, classes, and community events hosted 31,700+ attendees 740+ professional and 770+ emerging artists featured 53 artists showcased in 14 visual art exhibits, with artists receiving a 7080% commission

Sting delivers a soulful set at Hard Rock Live Hollywood, FL, with his 3.0 world tour By Rosa Cavalcanti

With the intention to evolve rather than replicate, Sting’s current performance is focused on a minimalist setup. With longtime guitarist Dominic Miller and drummer Chris Maas by his side, the show delivers a vast catalogue of spanning songs from The Police to a wide range of solo work, illustrating a condensed but deep dive through his career. Sting continues to attract generations of fans with honesty, warmth and charisma while delivering an energetic musical experience. He frequently pauses between songs to give the audience a little insight into how some of his songs came about. While introducing the song “Fields of Gold”, he mentions… ”I want to sing a song about my house, I have a little house in the English countryside, It’s more like a Castle really, but it’s near Stonehenge”. He continues by saying, ” if you are ever in Stonehenge, knock on

my door and I will make you a cup of tea” . His customary interaction with the audience brings a feeling of intimacy and familiarity. A treat for loyal fans. At age 74, Sting continues to amaze audiences with his impeccable and timeless voice and solid physical shape, while

conveying stage presence and disposition. The 3.0 tour highlights arrangements of often reharmonized songs, with extended versions that feature a more jazz-inflected tone rather than relying on the large-scale performance

customary to previous tours; the music is the focus. The trio format boosts a more unrestrained execution of song hits while remaining authentic and fresh. The tour demonstrates Sting’s sustained worldwide draw and legacy, allowing for his live experience to adapt to different settings. Sting has chosen substance over spectacle. You can expect familiarity, but also subtle reinvention. With a more mature and sophisticated approach, it feels as if the songs sound more built and less reliant on backing arrangements while remaining polished and dynamic. His bass playing remains prevalent throughout his performance. As I mentioned in previous show reviews, “no one quite sounds like Sting” and no one likely will. Sting is set to tour until August 2026, including Europe and Australia.

CLASSIFIELDS PUBLIC NOTICE PUBLIC NOTICE STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION CONSOLIDATED NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE PERMIT AND TO USE SOVEREIGN AND SUBMERGED LANDS The Department of Environmental Protection gives notice of its intent to issue a Joint Coastal Permit (0405735-002-JC) and letter of consent to use sovereign submerged lands to Boca Owner, LLC. 1 Vanderbilt Ave, 26th Floor, New York, NY 10017, to authorize the replacement of 500 linear feet of riprap along the southern shoreline within the Boca Raton Inlet and placement of 1000 linear feet of riprap along the western shoreline of the property. The application file is available online and can be reached through the Departments Information Portal at: https://shorturl.at/QJq4W The Department will issue the permit and letter of consent to use sovereign submerged lands, unless a timely petition for an administrative proceeding is filed pursuant to the provisions of Sections 120.569 and 120.57, F.S. On the filing of a timely and sufficient petition, this action will not be final and effective until further order of the Department. Because the administrative hearing process is designed to formulate final agency action, the hearing process may result in a modification of the agency action or even denial of the application. A person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department’s action may petition for an administrative proceeding (hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, F.S. Pursuant to Rule 28-106.201, F.A.C., a petition for an administrative hearing must contain the following information: (a) The name and address of each agency affected and each agency’s file or identification number, if known; (b) The name, address, any email address, any facsimile number, and telephone number of the petitioner; the name, address, and telephone number of the petitioner’s representative, if any, which shall be the address for service purposes during the course of the proceeding; and an explanation of how the petitioner’s substantial interests are or will be affected by the agency determination; (c) A statement of when and how the petitioner received notice of the agency decision; (d) A statement of all disputed issues of material fact. If there are none, the petition must so indicate; (e) A concise statement of the ultimate facts alleged, including the specific facts that the petitioner contends warrant reversal or modification of the agency’s proposed action; (f)A statement of the specific rules or statutes that the petitioner contends require reversal or modification of the agency’s proposed action, including an explanation of how the alleged facts relate to the specific rules or statutes; and (g) A statement of the relief sought by the petitioner, stating precisely the action that the petitioner wishes the agency to take with respect to the agency’s proposed action. The petition must be filed (received by the Clerk) in the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000. Also, a copy of the petition shall be mailed to the applicant at the address indicated above at the time of filing. In accordance with Rule 62-110.106(3), F.A.C., petitions for an administrative hearing by the applicant must be filed within 14 days of receipt of this written notice. Petitions filed by any persons other than the applicant, and other than those entitled to written notice under Section 120.60(3), F.S., must be filed within 14 days of publication of the notice or within 14 days of receipt of the written notice, whichever occurs first. Under Section 120.60(3), F.S., however, any person who has asked the Department for notice of agency action may file a petition within 14 days of receipt of such notice, regardless of the date of publication. The failure to file a petition within the appropriate time period shall constitute a waiver of that person’s right to request an administrative determination (hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, F.S., or to intervene in this proceeding and participate as a party to it. Any subsequent intervention (in a proceeding initiated by another party) will be only at the discretion of the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in compliance with Rule 28-106.205, F.A.C. Under Rule 62-110.106(4), F.A.C., a person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department’s action may also request an extension of time to file a petition for an administrative hearing. The Department may, for good cause shown, grant the request for an extension of time. Requests for extension of time must be filed with the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000, before the applicable deadline for filing a petition for an administrative hearing. A timely request for extension of time shall toll the running of the time period for filing a petition until the request is acted upon. Mediation is not available in this proceeding.
