The Issue Whether the license of Respondent should be revoked, annulled, suspended or withdrawn for violating the statutes and rules pertaining to cosmetologists by operating a salon at her home without a Florida salon license.
Findings Of Fact The Respondent filed an election of remedies and plead "the facts as alleged are true but do not constitute a violation of law." The Respondent had established a beauty salon in her home prior to March 8, 1974 but was unable to receive a zoning variance to allow her to operate the salon. She was cited by Petitioner for operating a salon without a license which citation is the subject of this hearing. The Respondent is no longer operating a salon in her home and is now a duly licensed cosmetologist practicing in a licensed cosmetology salon. She has been so employed since 1974 and has complied with the laws, rules and regulations since that date.
Recommendation Send a letter of reprimand to Respondent for failure to abide by the statute and rules governing cosmetologists. DONE and ORDERED this 17th day of August, 1977, in Tallahassee, Florida. DELPHENE C.

Findings Of Fact At all times material to this proceeding, the Respondent was the owner of Palm Beauty Salon located at 5084 N.E. 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida. At all times material to this proceeding, Respondent Fanfan was licensed to operate Palm Beauty Salon as a cosmetology salon, having been issued Florida Cosmetology salon license number CE 0038205. Respondent Fanfan was not licensed to practice cosmetology in the State of Florida at any time. On August 19, 1985, Sharon Banks Geter (Geter), inspector for the Petitioner, inspected the Palm Beauty Salon and was accompanied by another inspector, Anthony Destro (Destro). At the time of the inspection on August 19, 1985, Adelaide Baltazar (Baltazar) and Myrtha Janvier (Janvier) were found to be performing cosmetology services in the Palm Beauty Salon. However, the evidence was insufficient to prove that Baltazar and Janvier were employed by Respondent Fanfan. Neither the Respondent nor Marie Herard (Herard) the manager of Palm Beauty Salon, were present when Geter and Destro inspected the Palm Beauty Salon on August 19, 1985. At all times material to this proceeding, Baltazar and Janvier were not licensed to practice cosmetology in the State of Florida.
Recommendation Based upon the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law recited herein, it is RECOMMENDED that the Board of Cosmetology enter a final order DISMISSING the Administrative Complaint filed against Respondent Fanfan.
