DAYTONA BEACH -- The taxpayers across Volusia County just can't catch a break: Apparently Daytona State College's request for mediation over the $1.5 million owed by the Community Cultural Foundation to the college is now in limbo.
In a letter dated Sept.15, 2011, and sent to DSC attorneys Holland & Knight, CCF board member and attorney J. Lester Kaney of the Daytona Beach-based Cobb Cole law firm, states: "There is no point in scheduling a mediation with CCF unless the (insurance) carrier participates."
And then to add insult to injury, Kaney maintains: "We continue to reject the assertion that CCF is a public entity and reject that CCF was at any time acting on behalf of a public entity such that it is subject to public records request under Chapter 119, Florida Statutes.
