BCC’s “consultant” (CCG) looks forward to pocketing our total $121,395 payment over the ten year cable contract. ($32,000 from initial Comcast kickback + $89,395 in savings over 10 years.)
This is 5.14% of our total 2008 annual budget.
F.S. “718.3026 Contracts for products and services; in writing; bids; exceptions….
(1) All contracts as further described herein or any contract that is not to be fully performed within 1 year after the making thereof, for the purchase, lease, or renting of materials or equipment to be used by the association in accomplishing its purposes under this chapter, and all contracts for the provision of services, shall be in writing. If a contract for the purchase, lease, or renting of materials or equipment, or for the provision of services, requires payment by the association on behalf of any condominium operated by the association in the aggregate that exceeds 5 percent of the total annual budget of the association, including reserves, the association shall obtain competitive bids for the materials, equipment, or services. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require the association to accept the lowest bid.”
Once again this Board of Directors has violated Florida law, failed in their fiduciary duty and demonstrated mind-boggling incompetence. Does the BOD’s failure to get bids on “consulting” (not to mention their failure to read and/or understand the CCG contract) nullify the contract?
Is it time to take back our community?
