CC-1. Revision to Policy 1100B: Lobbyist Activities for Economic Gain
Adopt the revisions to Policy 1100B: Lobbyist Activities for Economic Gain, at this final reading.
In December 2009, the School Board approved revisions to Policy 1100B: Lobbyist Activities for Economic Gain. The revisions were focused on expanding the definition of a lobbyist and including penalties for violating the policy.
Subsequently, the School Board adopted its new Ethics Code (Policy 1007), at its May 2011 meeting. This new policy contains provisions involving lobbyist activities. Staff is now recommending additional revisions to Policy 1100B: Lobbyist Activities for Economic Gain, to align it with the new Ethics Code.
The new revisions to the lobbyist policy can be summarized as follows:
1. Additional language stating a person representing an employee bargaining group (union, meet and confer group) when acting on behalf of the employee bargaining group, will be added to the list of those not considered lobbyists.
2. Revised language to reflect two years is the length of time senior-level employees and School Board Members are prohibited from lobbying activities after their employment or term of office has been severed.
3. Revised language to reflect all lobbying activities between School Board Members and lobbyists shall be documented on Lobbying Contract Report Forms, which are subject to public inspection.
4. Additional language to reflect lobbyists are prohibited from providing campaign contributions to any School Board Members for their own campaigns or for other candidates during the "Cone of Silence".
These revisions were discussed at the September 27, 2011 School Board Workshop, the November 17, 2011 Public Rule Development Meeting, the January 10, 2012 School Board Workshop, and approved at the March 6, 2012 School Board Meeting. Upon School Board approval, at final reading, appropriate measures will be taken to communicate these revisions to all stakeholders and provide in-service opportunities to applicable staff on the implementation of the revised policy.

HH-1. Final Acceptance of Sandpiper Elementary School Project No. 3061-99-06 and Settlement Agreement between The School Board of Broward County, Florida and Thermal Concepts, Inc.
Approve the Final Acceptance of Sandpiper Elementary School HVAC Additions & Alterations, Project No. 3061-99-06, and approve the Settlement Agreement between The School Board of Broward County, Florida and Thermal Concepts, Inc.
On February 6, 2007, The School Board of Broward County, Florida ("SBBC") entered into an Agreement with Thermal Concepts, Inc. ("Thermal") for the addition and alteration of HVAC systems at Sandpiper Elementary School for Project No. 3061-99-06 (the "Project"). A dispute developed between the parties concerning whether the work performed by Thermal conformed to the Agreement, and whether such work was causing chronic malfunction of the HVAC system. As a result of this dispute, the SBBC, through its Facilities Department, withheld payment of Thermal's Final Retainage in the amount of $156,225.90 and sought repairs of the system.
On or about November 22, 2010, Thermal filed a lawsuit against SBBC in a case styled Thermal Concepts, Inc. v. The School Board of Broward County, Florida, Case No. 10-045492 (05), in the Circuit Court of Broward County, Florida (the "Lawsuit"), alleging in a two count complaint for breach of contract and violation of Local Government Prompt Payment Act. The School Board moved to dismiss the lawsuit and the parties engaged in discussions regarding repairs that Thermal would make to the HVAC system to assure its performance and monitoring that Thermal would undertake to confirm proper performance of the HVAC system.
Thermal proposes to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice, waive its claim to attorney's fees and costs, accept one-half of the amount of accrued interest as of October 2010 on the Final Retainage, and comply in all respects with the terms of the Settlement Agreement. As part of the Settlement Agreement, Thermal shall provide the SBBC an additional, extended, labor-only warranty on the installed HVAC system and additional training of SBBC personnel on the operation and maintenance of the system. Upon approval of the settlement and in accordance with its terms, the District will pay Thermal its Final Retainage of $156,225.90, plus the agreed upon interest on the retainage of $11,345.90.
District staff, the General Counsel, and the School Board Cadre Counsel, F. Malcolm Cunningham, Jr., Esq., recommend approval of the Settlement Agreement as a fair and reasonable cost-effective resolution of the Lawsuit, which will eliminate protracted litigation and additional costs.
The financial impact of this item is $11,345.90 for interest on the retainage for this project. The source of these funds is Legal and Contingency.
