The opinion

WELLS, J.,

concurring in result only.

I concur with the decision of the Court. I do not join in the opinion. I would simply adopt the well-reasoned opinion of Judge Warner in the district court. Fla. Dep’t of Agric. & Consumer Servs. v. Haire, 836 So.2d 1040 (Fla. 4th DCA 2003). Judge Warner’s opinion directly covers all points in this controversy.

BELL, J., concurs.
