The Issue The issues in this case are whether Petitioner has standing to protest the establishment of an additional motorcycle dealership; and, if so, whether Petitioner is adequately representing this line of motorcycles in the relevant territory or community pursuant to section 320.642, Florida Statutes (2018).1/
Findings Of Fact Tropical Scooters is located at 11594 Seminole Boulevard, Largo, Florida 33778. It has been in the business of selling scooters and other motorized vehicles for ten years. Michele Stanley is the owner and manager of Tropical Scooters and she has knowledge regarding its purchasing and franchise agreements, inventory, and sales figures. Although no franchise agreement was offered into evidence, Ms. Stanley testified Petitioner has an agreement with a distributor, Pacific Rim International, d/b/a Ice Bear ATV (Ice Bear), to sell YNGF motorcycles. Ice Bear has been supplying Petitioner with YNGF motorcycles for approximately two and a half years. Tropical Scooters has had a good relationship with this distributor and has encountered no problems selling the YNGF line. In the last 18 months, Tropical Scooters has sold 137 YNGF units and currently has 23 units at its showroom. Ms. Stanley discovered that Respondents had applied with the Department to establish a YNGF motorcycle dealership at 9145 66th Street North, Pinellas Park, Florida 33782, from the February 22, 2018, notice published by the Department in the Florida Administrative Register.2/ Subsequently, Tropical Scooters filed a timely complaint with the Department challenging Respondents’ application. Ms. Stanley was familiar with the proposed location of the new dealership and stated that it was four miles “as the crow flies” from the Tropical Scooters showroom. Tropical Scooters is an existing dealership that sells YNGF motorcycles and is within 12.5 of the location proposed by Powersports and Motrac for the new dealership. Therefore, Tropical Scooters has standing to bring this challenge pursuant to section 320.642(3). There was no evidence that Tropical Scooters’ representation of the YGNF line of motorcycles was inadequate in its community or territory as described in section 320.642(2)(b).
Recommendation Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, it is RECOMMENDED that a final order be entered by the Department denying the new dealership application of Respondents for the sale and service of Sanmen County Youngfu Machine Co., Ltd., vehicles at 9145 66th Street North, Pinellas Park, Pinellas County, Florida. DONE AND ENTERED this 27th day of July, 2018, in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida.
