Madison County awards mold remediation contract, opts for mitigation-only work

The board reviewed two sets of proposals for mold remediation and restoration in an annex space, comparing quotes for mitigation-only work and mitigation plus restoration. One set of figures discussed in the meeting listed Rainbow restoration at $11,030.81 and mitigation at $13,598.69; ProClean/HeroClean totals were also discussed with a cited combined total of $30,270.09 for both mitigation and restoration options.

After discussion about whether to pay for corrective restoration now or wait pending potential layout changes, the board agreed to proceed with mitigation-only work and to award the remediation contract to Rainbow. "I would approve just getting rid of the mold," a board member said during debate, and the motion to accept Rainbow's mitigation proposal passed. The board noted additional clearance testing by Alliance Environment would be required after remediation and that testing costs were not included in the remediation quote.
