July 20, 2026

Coral Springs Improvement District

C. Attorney
Mr. Rustin reported the following:



On the procurement end, they are dealing with a contractor who is refusing to end the contract. Going forward with any piggybacks, she will provide language to include stating the District has the right to terminate without cause.
She had discussions with Mr. McIntosh about the Board’s concern regarding engineering costs. The Florida Legislature identifies engineering services on something that should be evaluated by qualifications instead of cost. The Florida Legislature also identifies design build services as being evaluated by qualifications and not price. She feels the District did the right thing by doing an independent cost estimate. They came in within 20%, which means they are competitive. Just because the District has a continuing service contract with an engineering firm that does design build, it does not mean they have to be used for design build. The District can go out for bids for design build services. The challenge is you do not know the price until they are 60% into the design. They then give you a maximum price, and the District can pull out at that time. She
recommends independent cost estimates.
