I was a contractor for 30 years in Florida and it’s those that do bad that makes the good ones suffer. I remember when the competency board was feared. Now they have become a bunch of wet noodles. For those folks out there getting ripped off by bogus contractors there is a recovery fund. Those out there that were a victim and the competency board sat on their hands you should think about naming them in a lawsuit. After all your tax dollars pay them. Escambia county sends you a property tax bill every year to which they demand payment. Demand they do there job !!!!
Very interested in serving on this board! My research capabilities and 36 years employment at the West Florida Regional Planning Council will be an asset to this organization!.
The county was asleep at the wheel.
Now they want to create a rehab blaming it over the entity they wasnt monitoring.
Get rid of the sleepers and that would actually be a start.
Then send them to narcolepsy anonymous.
@Oversight, your many words add up to nothing, really.
Competency and Board. Two words that should not be used together by either the commission or this entity. LOL!
