Board finds probable cause to move contractor 's licensing misrepresentation inquiry to disciplinary hearing

Jul 1, 2026

Escambia County staff reported that contractor Curtis McLaughlin failed to disclose out-of-jurisdiction lawsuits and contractor-board actions on his licensing application; the board found probable cause and moved the matter to disciplinary hearing to examine whether misrepresentation occurred.

The full story

Staff told the board that a June directive from the Contractor Competency Board had prompted an investigation into Curtis McLaughlin and that backup exhibits included multiple out-of-state court cases, Oregon contractor competency board actions, and other filings. Staff said McLaughlin had been asked to provide a written response by June 24 and had not done so at the time of the agenda; an email submitted later was distributed to the board.
