Division of Administrative Hearings, Florida
Filed: Aug. 16, 1999
By letter dated June 2, 1999, Respondent advised Petitioner that it intended to deny his "application for Firefighters Supplemental Compensation" because, in Respondent's view, Petitioner's "Major Study Concentration of Biology does not meet the criteria found in Rule 4A-37.084, Florida Administrative Code." Petitioner thereafter submitted to Respondent a completed and signed Amended Election of Rights form, dated July 27, 1999, and a letter, dated July 30, 1999, requesting an administrative hearing on Respondent's proposed action. Petitioner's letter read as follows:Applicant for firefighters supplemental compensation whose prior application therefor was denied and whose subsequent application was granted was not entitled to entry in the program effective back to the date of his prior application.
