Despite the ethical clouds over this general contractor’s previous tenures on airport boards, Gov. Jeb Bush appointed Fuqua to the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) in ’99. In ’94, the Securities and Exchange Commission investigated gifts that public officials took from firms that they had hired to underwrite government bonds. The probe revealed that Fuqua and other GOAA members took expensive tickets to Broadway shows and sporting events from underwriter PaineWebber. A ’93 media expose of GOAA travel policy violations prompted Fuqua and two other members to return $1,079 that they improperly billed to that board.
