Will new owners move the team out of Sarasota for spring training? Will the years long Sarasota County vs Gilbane Builders lawsuit debacle at Ed Smith baseball stadium sour new owners on staying in Sarasota Fl? In an effort to save face, Sarasota County Attorney Bora Kayan had filed multiple Appeals throwing Hoyt Architecture and the Baltimore Orioles under the bus claiming they were responsible for the choice of the BASF resin flooring at Ed Smith Stadium Sarasota in 2013 that supposedly turned defective, that wasn't. Gilbane Building Company has offices at 1215 E Fort Ave #100, Baltimore, MD. Gilbane completed the $5.1 million dollar Camden Yards Sports Complex pedestrian spine in Baltimore MD. The Baltimore Orioles baseball team have the same BASF resin flooring at Camden Yards in Baltimore as was at Ed Smith stadium Sarasota. https://nypost.com/2024/01/30/sports/john-angelos-agrees-to-sell-orioles-for-1-725-billion-in-bombshell-deal

Who is this Gilbane Const Company who did the renovation of Ed Smith baseball stadium in Sarasota Fl? Did they have any references? Were they qualified for the Ed Smith Stadium project? In a word, YES! Gilbane Building successfully renovated iconic Fenway Park in Boston for the Red Sox baseball team but drew complaints and a lawsuit from Sarasota County over renovation of Ed Smith baseball Stadium for the Baltimore Orioles. Gilbane, Inc. (Gilbane) is a national construction and real estate development company based in Providence, Rhode Island. Gilbane has more than 45 office locations worldwide. It is the parent organization of Gilbane Building Company and Gilbane Development Company. Gilbane, Inc. is a sixth-generation, family-owned business founded in 1870. Sarasota did not even become a Town until 1902. A short list of notable projects from Gilbane Inc.'s subsidiary, Gilbane Building Company, include the National World War II Memorial Washington DC, Oceane Siesta Key Sarasota FL, University of Connecticut Rentschler Field Football Stadium Hartford CT, Florida Gulf Coast University Student Health and Wellness Center Fort Myers FL, 1964 New York World's Fair, the 1980 Winter Olympics facilities in Lake Placid New York, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial and the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C., and the Fenway Park clubhouse improvements for the Boston Red Sox baseball team. Gilbane Building Company Completes Improvements to iconic Fenway Park, one of the oldest ballparks in America, unveiled prior to Red Sox 2018 home opener on time and with no lawsuit like in Sarasota.

Christian Ziegler: In November 2018, Christian Ziegler was elected to the County Commission of Sarasota County. District 2 Vice Char Christian Ziegler was up for election in 2022 he did not run. Christian Ziegler was one of the Sarasota County Commissioners who voted NO on the $513,000 settlement offer from Gilbane in December 2020 over concerns about defective flooring at Ed Smith baseball stadium. Christian Ziegler was NOT on the Sarasota County Commission in 2017 when the board approved the Million dollar replacement of all the flooring at Ed Smith stadium. Sarasota County’s Procurement Department approved a "Million Dollar Single Source Request NO BID CONTRACT" on August 10th, 2017 for PremUS of Orlando to install new resin flooring at Ed Smith baseball stadium, a memo showed. The form explaining that process said, “With a deadline for completing a major portion of the work before Spring Training in March 2018, there is not time to allow multiple vendors to provide test patches and prove their products, systems and methods are successful." This No Bid Contract violates Florida State Law. So why and at whose direction did Sarasota County Commissioner Charles Hines pay almost double $1,079,243, to have new resin flooring installed in December 2017 to replace the 39,800 square feet of so called defective MMA flooring at Ed Smith stadium. Why was this amount $1,079,243 (double original cost) paid to PremUS in Orlando with a NO BID, single source contract out of Tourist Development Council (TDC) money when the original winning bid in 2013 by Advance Flooring was $513,787, what the hell?

Don't get me wrong here, Ed Smith baseball Stadium is probably the finest Spring Training Baseball Stadium on the West Coast of Florida. I buy 10 tickets every year for 5 selected games and usually go up to the 2nd floor concourse and the 3rd Base Lounge enclosed seating area. Everything is great at Ed Smith Stadium to the casual observer, but there are, or were, some very disturbing and underlying events that needed further investigation.
UPDATE Dec 17th, 2022 THE HAMMER FELL! Former Sarasota County Attorney Bora S. Kayan was behind the failed Million Dollar Lawsuit filed on Defendant Gilbane Building Construction in November 2016 over supposed flooring defects at Ed Smith baseball Stadium, that weren't, or so he said. As of December 12th, 2022 Judge Walker has ruled and issued an ORDER that Plaintiff Sarasota County now has to pay Defendant Gilbane's Attorney Costs of $120,000.00 on or before December 31st, 2022. Because Sarasota County refused settlement offers of a total of $563,000 from Defendant Gilbane during the 4 year and 5 months long lawsuit, which Sarasota County lost. The Sarasota - Gilbane case was a non Jury case with the Judge the deciding factor. Judge Walker was recorded to have said "This is the longest non-jury trial I have ever encountered". Sarasota County will be writing a check for $120,0000 to Gilbane, the Defendant in the Sarasota County lawsuit fiasco over flooring at Ed Smith baseball Stadium, WOW how stupid! Former Sarasota County attorney Bora Kayan who led the charge, appears to have left the Sarasota County Attorney office sometime in August 2022. In the end result Judge Walker ruled that the resin flooring on the 1st and 2nd floor concourses of Ed Smith Stadium were not defective in itself, but the wrong type of outdoor resin flooring for the Florida high heat and torrential rains. Christian Ziegler - District 2 Vice Char up for election in 2022, was one of the County Commissioners who voted to not take the $513,000 settlement from Gilbane. Also Plaintiff Sarasota County has some culpability in the failure of the resin floors as maintenance people were power washing the resin flooring at Ed Smith Stadium, even at the seam areas, forcing water under the resin flooring and causing it to delaminate and break loose from the concrete substrate, WOW! And it gets worse, read on!
UPDATE December 6th 2022. "THE HAMMER TO FALL" Upcoming, Judge Walker has decided how much the Plaintiff Sarasota County Commissioners are going to pay the attorney for Defendant Gilbane Building Const in the failed Million Dollar Lawsuit, (Bora S. Kayan was lead attorney for County for most part, he has left the County office) over supposed defective flooring at Ed Smith Stadium, that was and wasn't. You will not read about any of this Sarasota County fiasco in the local Herald Tribune newspaper or see any reports on Local ABC7 News. The Plaintiff Sarasota County lost the 4 years 5 months long lawsuit and now has to pay the Defendant Gilbane's attorney legal costs, WTH? The last two years Sarasota County has filed appeal after appeal to not pay! Attorney Bora S. Kayan is no longer with Sarasota County. Builder Resume: Gilbane Building had successfully renovated iconic Fenway park for the Boston Red Sox baseball team and also renovated Camden Yards for the Baltimore Orioles baseball team but drew complaints and a lawsuit from Sarasota County over supposed flooring problems at little Ed Smith stadium, the spring training facility for the Baltimore Orioles baseball team. So far, Plaintiff Sarasota County filed the complaint (lost) and multiple appeals with the County clerk costing a total of $1,561.00 with no results. Pages of Motions after Motions were filed dragging this dead horse to some sort of a finish line after a total of 6 years in December 2022. The County Complaint first filed against Defendant Gilbane Building Const on Nov 30, 2016. How many man hours wasted during this debacle? Who files a lawsuit, rejects settlement offers of $563,000, losses the case after 4 years and 5 months and ends up having to pay the Defendant Gilbane's attorney legal costs of $120,000.00, Sarasota County does, you can't make this stupid stuff up, LOL.
SUNDAY AUGUST 14th 2022, Motion filed to recoup legal Legal Costs for Gilbane Building Co Attorney Thomas Dart from Sarasota County in their failed lawsuit. Sarasota County's final Appeal has failed, Court Final Judgment on August 12, 2022. Sarasota County is now liable for Gilbane's attorney Thomas Dart Legal Costs during the 4 years 5 months long trial. In the ever ongoing Ed Smith Stadium lawsuit over the supposed defective flooring at Ed Smith Stadium, that wasn't, Sarasota County as Plaintiff lost the case with Bora S. Kayan the lead attorney for the most part, Gilbane Builders as Defendant prevailed. The attorney for Gilbane, Thomas Dart, previously had filed a Motion to recover Attorney Fees and Legal Costs in Feb 2022 as Sarasota County refused proposed settlements offers of $50,000 and then $513,000 during the 4 years 5 months long Lawsuit, Sarasota County lost the case. The Judge approved recovery of Legal Costs for Gilbane's Attorney Thomas Dart, Sarasota County then filed multiple appeals to block payment. I won't be silent on this case, I don't condone tax-paying citizens (property owners and business owners) being silenced when it comes to monies squandered by Sarasota County Commissioners (refused $513,000 final settlement in Dec 2020 from Gilbane) "advised" by the Sarasota County attorneys office.
On Feb 16th, 2022 the Judge in the case DENIED Attorney Fees but GRANTED Legal Costs for Gilbane's attorney, the actual cost has yet to be determined. The Attorney for Gilbane had requested in the original Motion for Attorney Fees and Legal Costs (like Expert Witnesses and Investigation costs) on Oct 8th, 2021 a total of $609,211, he is not getting that amount. Florida Statute 57.041 Costs; recovery from losing party in Lawsuit.—(1) The party recovering judgment shall recover all his or her legal costs and charges which shall be included in the judgment. The Judge's ruling in the Ed Smith Stadium lawsuit is a crushing blow to the Sarasota County Attorney Office and the Sarasota County Commissioners who in the end had no case, received nothing in their lawsuit filed on Gilbane, and passed on the last settlement offer of $513,000 from Gilbane, WTH? “Stupid is as stupid does”. Local media, the Herald Tribune and ABC7 News in Sarasota have nothing to say about this abhorrent waste of County Tax Payers and Tourist Development Council (TDC) money, WTH?
SARASOTA COUNTY COULD END UP LOSING OVER $2 MILLION IN A LAWSUIT THEY FILED ON GILBANE BUILDERS ABOUT DEFECTIVE FLOORING AT ED SMITH STADIUM. As of October 11th 2021, Thomas Dart the attorney for Gilbane Building claims he billed Gilbane a total of $609,711 in legal fees during the 4 years 5 months long Sarasota County v Gilbane Lawsuit. Mr Dart has filed a Motion requesting Sarasota County reimburse Gilbane the $609,711 he was paid during the Sarasota County lawsuit, the Motion was granted to move forward but Judge ruled only legal costs not attorney fees. Sarasota County lost their lawsuit filed against Gilbane that was initially filed in 2016. Sarasota County rejected an offer of $513,000 to settle the supposed defective BASF resin flooring at Ed Smith Stadium from Gilbane back in December 2020. Since Sarasota County had rejected all of Gilbane's offers to settle the lawsuit and the Judge ruled in favor for Gilbane during the lawsuit and Sarasota County received $0 in the case, the County now became liable for all of Gilbane's legal costs, how stupid. And to make matters worse Sarasota County had replaced all the supposed defective BASF resin flooring at Ed Smith Stadium in December 2017 at their own expense paying $1,079,243 which is more than double the initial cost of installation of $513,000 back in 2013. The lawsuit filed by Sarasota County on Gilbane has racked up expenses for the County including possible legal fees and flooring replacement that could tally $2,201,954. The Baltimore Orioles baseball team couldn't have been too happy with former Sarasota County attorney Bora Kayan filing an Appeal making them out to be the bad guys in the Gilbane lawsuit fiasco at Ed Smith Stadium! The Herald Tribune covers Sarasota County Government and the County Commissioners has not told the Ed Smith Stadium lawsuit fiasco story to the citizens of Sarasota County, why not? Where is the Herald Tribune newspaper's accountability to the citizens of Sarasota County?
UPDATE SEPT 2nd 2021: JUDGE RULES IN FAVOR OF GILBANE COMPANY IN SARASOTA COUNTY FLOORING FIASCO LAWSUIT, SARASOTA COUNTY WILL RECOVER NOTHING IN THIS ACTION, CASE CLOSED! SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSIONERS REJECTED A $513,000 GOOD FAITH SETTLEMENT OFFER FROM GILBANE IN DECEMBER 2020. NOW SARASOTA COUNTY IS LIABLE FOR ALL OF GILBANE'S LEGAL AND ATTORNEY FEES, WHAT THE HELL? The Judge further ruled only legal costs not attorney fees. This
is a colossal blunder by the Sarasota County Commissioners and Bora
Kayan of the County Attorney's Office, the lead attorney, who advised the Commissioners
during the 4 years 5 months long Gilbane Lawsuit. County Commissioners are an elected position in Sarasota, some of them are up for re-election in 2022. Christian Ziegler - District 2 Vice Char up for election in 2022, was one of the County Commissioners who voted to not take the $513,000 settlement from Gilbane. All positions with the Office of the County
Attorney in Sarasota are at-will employment which is an employer's ability to dismiss, (fire) an employee for any reason without having to establish "just cause" for termination, and without warning. It appears to me some people should be not be re-elected and some should be fired at Sarasota County government offices for this Gilbane lawsuit fiasco were hundreds of thousands of dollars of Sarasota County money were lost with more to come when Judge rules on how much of Gilbane's legal expenses will be paid by Sarasota County! How stupid! Will the Herald Tribune ever reveal to the residents of Sarasota County what happened with the Ed Smith stadium lawsuit?
INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE FROM PUBLIC RECORDS & NEWS ARTICLES ABOUT ED SMITH STADIUM SARASOTA. Back on Thursday July 15th, 2021: Judge's Preliminary Ruling in Sarasota County Defective Flooring Fiasco Lawsuit at Ed Smith Stadium Leans Towards Defendant Gilbane. Case Number: 2016 CA 006035 NC Original File Date 11/30/2016, Judge Walker states on Thurs 7/15/2021, "This is an important case and I understand that, but sometimes a ruling by a Judge is binary, there is no middle ground. I want you to know Mr. (Bora) Kayan for Sarasota County Plaintiff, while I have stated clearly that I am bending toward ruling towards the Defendants (Gilbane) in this case that's not a reflection of your legal work." Judge Walker continues by saying, "This is the longest non-jury trial I have ever encountered, I have found that some of the evidence put forth by the Defendant (Gilbane) to be compelling and therefore ultimately would carry their position". Bora Sabih Kayan is a Construction Litigation attorney working in the Office of the Sarasota County Attorney with over 24 years of experience in Defective and Dangerous Products, Construction Litigation and Premises Liability cases, he was hired in May 2017. Bora Kayan became the lead attorney for Sarasota County in the Gilbane lawsuit.
Apparently the end result of the 'cause and effect' of the so called defective BASF MMA resin flooring on the 1st floor and 2nd floor open air concourses at Ed Smith stadium is water intrusion under the resin flooring causing it to de-laminate and the Florida extreme heat and heavy rain from tropical type storms resulting in thermal shock. Exposed resin flooring on 2nd floor concourse at Ed Smith stadium could go from 110 degrees down to 70 degrees in a matter of minutes after a thunderstorm on a hot August day.
The Judge has ruled that there is no actual defect in the BASF MMA resin flooring or it's installation by Advanced Flooring in 2013 at Ed smith stadium under contract with Gilbane Building Company and that Sarasota County was responsible for any proper upkeep, cleaning and repairs of the resin flooring at Ed Smith stadium, CASE CLOSED. The Judge's preliminary ruling held true and he ruled in favor of the defendant Gilbane based on evidence that Sarasota County and the architect Hoyt were responsible in part for the flooring failure at Ed Smith Stadium due to excessive power washing, thermal shock and the architect Hoyt specifying a flooring product that could not hold up under Florida weather extremes. There was no fault for Gilbane Company or Advance Flooring, (the MMA resin flooring installer), or even the MMA resin flooring itself, it was just the wrong product for the environment. Back in 2009, David M. Schwartz Architects and Sarasota’s Hoyt Architects were the initial choices by the Baltimore Orioles and Janet Marie Smith to make over Sarasota’s Ed Smith Stadium as the spring home of the Orioles.
It is my opinion that after all the facts became clear and the judge ruled in the "Sarasota County v Gilbane" lawsuit that Deputy County Attorney Bora Kayan should have been fired for his part in Sarasota County rejecting the $513,000 Gilbane offer to settle the Ed Smith Stadium flooring fiasco back in December 2020. It is the job of the County Attorney's office to advises the Sarasota County Commissioners in all legal matters. Mr Kayan was initially not involved in filing the Gilbane lawsuit back in 2016 but he became the lead attorney sometime in 2017. In 2020, Bora Kayan made
$146,098 by
working as a Deputy County Attorney
at the Sarasota County.
Bora Kayan's salary was 40% higher than the average
and 51% higher than
median Deputy County Attorney salary in 2020. Woulda, coulda shoulda, took the Gilbane cash money settlement Bora Kayan and Sarasota County Commissioners. What now?
HERALD TRIBUNE WRITES: Sarasota County Rejects $513,000 Gilbane December 2020 Settlement Offer in Defective Flooring Lawsuit After Paying $1.1 Million to Replace Defective Flooring in December 2017. Sarasota County tax paying residents and all Sarasota County voters have a right to know why the County refused a $513,000 settlement offer in the Ed Smith stadium lawsuit and decided to let it ride, and roll the dice and now apparently ending up with nothing? They would just love a guy like Sarasota Deputy County Attorney Bora Kayan in Los Vegas who let's $513,000 ride on the pass line going for double or nothing and then rolls snake eyes (if you wager the pass line and roll snake eyes, two, you then lose your bet, if you roll a 7 or a 11 you double your bet).
The bosses at the Bellagio Casino in Los Vegas would send a plane and comp a room for such a "high roller" as Mr Kayan. Sarasota Deputy County Attorney Bora Kayan was leading the charge to recoup monies lost from the flooring fiasco lawsuit at Ed Smith Stadium. It doesn't take a CPA to figure out that Sarasota County should have taken the $513,000 settlement offer from Gilbane in December 2020 instead of rolling the dice and "Let It Ride", Mr Kayan! Sarasota County is now be liable for all of Gilbane's legal expenses, which after 4 years and 9 months would be substantial! This is a colossal blunder by the Sarasota County Commissioners and Bora Kayan of the County Attorney's Office who advised the Commissioners during the Gilbane Lawsuit, shoulda, coulda, woulda took the $513,000 cash Mr Kayan!

HOW STUPID....DON'T BUILD A HEAVY, SPRAWLING, 2 STORY CONCRETE BASEBALL STADIUM OVER THE CITY DUMP: It
is difficult enough to put up a large heavy building in Florida without
having to deal with cracked concrete floors from time to time as the
substrate in Florida is just sand and the bedrock
underlying most of the state is either limestone or dolostone, which is
naturally soluble and is easily dissolved by rainwater and groundwater.
But TO build a large two story concrete baseball stadium over the city dump filled with old rusting cars
and refrigerators sinking into the ground and you are going to have a
hell of a time with cracked concrete floors, walls, etc, etc, how stupid.
The money, $1 million, according to the agreement, is to be used to pump out contaminated water approximately 27-feet below the Ed Smith stadium that sits on top of the old Sarasota City Dump. “This facility is built on an old landfill,” head groundskeeper Dan Thomas said of Ed Smith Stadium. When you become head grounds keeper for a world-class baseball field, you don’t expect it to be built on top of a landfill. But, for Dan Thomas the groundskeeper at Ed Smith Stadium training facility for the Baltimore Orioles in Sarasota, Florida, that’s exactly what happened. Dan Thomas has been taking care of the Ed Smith Stadium field — and the Orioles’ other 13 spring training fields, some of which are behind Ed Smith, some of which are at Twin Lakes Park, for almost 12 years.
Defective and Dangerous Flooring: The MMA resin flooring installed in 2013 at Ed Smith stadium proved "defective" and cracked, delaminated and separated all over Ed Smith stadium shortly after installation, especially on the 2nd floor concourse as per records from the County lawsuit. Sarasota County officials were well aware of the extremely hazardous trip conditions for the baseball fans with the defective flooring at Ed Smith Stadium for at least 3 years but did little other than occasionally make temporary patch repairs with PremUS of Orlando who was paid $48,000 for all the repairs. Sarasota County filed a lawsuit on Gilbane the builder in Nov 2016 due to the "so called" defective MMA flooring. Original File Date 11/30/2016.
Gilbane offered a settlement of $513,000 in December 2020 but Sarasota County rejected the offer as they are out of pocket $1,079,243 the amount they paid in December 2017 to replace all the so called defective MMA flooring at the direction of County commissioner Charles Hines. Gilbane's settlement offer in December 2020 of $513,000 in regards to the so called defective MMA flooring at Ed Smith Stadium appears to be very fair based on what was paid for the installation of the original MMA resin coating in 2013, which was a total amount of $513,787.

The 2020 Florida Statutes; in Florida all state and local government public works construction projects (Ed Smith Stadium) must follow the public bidding and procurement laws, which seek to protect the public against the squandering of public funds and prevent abuses such as fraud, waste, and favoritism. Local governments are required to provide public notice and to competitively award public works construction contracts, unless an exception applies, such as where the estimated cost of the project will be less than $200,000 (Ed Smith Stadium flooring replacement was $1.1 Million dollars). "It doesn't take a CPA to figure out that Sarasota County overpaid by hundreds of thousands of dollars to have the defective flooring at Ed Smith stadium replaced with $1.1 Million Dollars out of TDC.
Way back in Jan 2013 Sarasota County put out for bid 39,800 square feet of BASF MMA resin flooring to be installed to cover cracks in concrete on 1st and 2nd floor concourses at Ed Smith Stadium, the Baltimore Orioles strongly urged the use of this specific BASF MMA resin flooring. In the Jan 2013 bid process for the MMA flooring at Ed Smith stadium "Advance systems flooring" won the bid with a price of $513,787, PremUS of Orlando came in second at $610,000 and there was a long list of several other bidders who did not make the cut. The BASF MMA resin flooring was pushed for use by the Baltimore Orioles but eventually failed in the sub tropical climate of Sarasota Fl and frequent power washing by the County. During a period of a least 4 years, attempts were made by Sarasota County to have the flooring replaced and or at least repaired by Gilbane, Advance and BASF to no avail. It appears that in 2015 and 2016 Sarasota County started to use PremUS of Orlando to make spot repairs in the MMA resin flooring at Ed Smith stadium. When it got to the point of no return, no resolve, Sarasota County filed a lawsuit on the builder Gilbane in Nov 2016. Original File Date 11/30/2016.
County Commissioner Charles Hines said in December 2017, "no problem we will get the $1.1 Million back from Gilbane" in conjunction with the Nov 2016 lawsuit to replace the defective flooring, no problem. Now, Gilbane comes forward with a $513,000 settlement offer in December 2020 that does not come close to cover all the supposed "defects" in the original lawsuit and doesn't touch any of the $1.1 Million Sarasota County paid for the new resin flooring, talk about throwing good County money after bad County money. See below statements made by officials with Sarasota County as to why they spent $1,079,243 to replace all the MMA resin flooring in Ed Smith Stadium in December 2017. Sarasota County has an active lawsuit filed against Gilbane Building contractors filed in November 2016 to replace same flooring. During a November review of 2017 fiscal year expenditures out of county Tourist Development Council Tax (TDC) revenue, a member of the county’s Tourist Development Council noted one line item, which said, “Stadium Repair & Improvement, $1.1 Million.” “Is that something new? Did this come up before?” Mayor Terry Gans of Longboat Key asked. Hines told the council members. Delaying the installation to after Spring Training March 2018 would require the additional cost of temporary and unsightly repairs to make the surfaces that are failing safe for the baseball fans, said Charles Hines. Charles Hines was elected to the Sarasota County Commission in 2012, and won his next term in 2016 without political opposition, as of Jan 2021 he is no longer on the Sarasota County commission.

For Plaintiff Sarasota County
Bora S. Kayan County Attorney Sarasota Fl.
MONEY, MONEY AND MORE MONEY.....The Baltimore Orioles closed out their spring training 2018 season in Sarasota in much the same way they’ve done it for the last 10 years: with more than 100,000 fans passing through the gates. In attracting 103,294 fans to Ed Smith Stadium, the Orioles sold out six of 15 games this spring in 2018, including 8,792 to see the New York Yankees on March 14, 2018. The team averaged 6,886 fans per home game, (generating over a $100 Million dollar economic impact for Sarasota County for the month of March 2018). It was the eighth time in nine years the American League-East team broke the 100,000 attendance mark. “Each spring we enjoy outstanding support from our fans, from those local to Sarasota to our many visitors from the Mid-Atlantic region,” said David Rovine, Vice President of Orioles-Sarasota.
