By William Hladky, FloridaBulldog.org, for SouthFloridaReporter.com, July 1, 2015 – The controversy surrounding the Broward School District’s $800-million bond construction program continues with an allegation of another Sunshine Law violation, and a question as to why the same company was ranked first for two offsetting contracts designed to check and balance each other.
Nathalie Lynch-Walsh, chair of the district’s civilian-advisory Facilities Task Force, accused the district of the Sunshine Law violation in a June 6 email to the school board. Her complaint later prompted school officials to hold another meeting in an attempt to “cure” the apparent violation.
Lynch-Walsh claimed the district violated the sunshine law on June 2 after two selection committees specially created to choose who will oversee bond-issue spending announced they’d “shortlisted” companies for three lucrative contracts to manage the district-wide construction projects.
