Elias M. LOEW, Appellant, v. DADE COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, and the City of Miami Beach, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, Appellees.
    No. 65-987.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida. Third District.
    July 19, 1966.
    
      Ronald S. Golub, Miami, for appellant.
    Thomas C. Britton, County Atty., Clyde Trammell, Jr., Asst. County Atty., Joseph A. Wanick, City Atty., and Milton Robbins, Asst. City Atty., for appellees.
    Before HENDRY, C. J., and CARROLL and BARKDULL, JJ.
   HENDRY, Chief Judge.

The amended complaint filed by the appellant, Elias M. Loew, presented two counts, the first for declaratory relief and the second a petition for writ of cer-tiorari to review an order of the Dade County Board of Rules and Appeals.

The court below in an amended order dismissed the first count on the ground that it is improper for said count to be joined in the same cause with a petition for certiorari. The second count was also dismissed after the court found that it failed to make a prima facie showing of deviation by the Board from the essential requirements of law. The court went on to state that it had examined the exhibits and transcript of the Board’s proceedings and found competent substantial evidence to support the decision of the Board.

Count one of the complaint was properly dismissed.

On the record before it the lower court correctly determined that the conclusions of the Board were supported by competent substantial evidence. We have thoroughly examined all of the points presented on appeal and determined that no reversible error has been demonstrated. Accordingly, the order appealed is affirmed.

Affirmed.
