NEW LONDON, Conn. (WTNH) --We're now getting a look at the damage in a boarded up office on the first floor of New London City Hall. Inspectors from Ledge Light Health District took pictures of mold growing in the room the Mayor says has 98 percent humidity after a steam pipe burst last month. Ledge Light has ordered the city to fix the pipe and clean up the mold forcing the city to take action, even though the Mayor says the city doesn't have the money.

"I have asked the city council to authorize an application for state LoCIP funds which can come to the city and help us make those repairs," said Mayor Daryl Finizio.

Repairs expected to cost $250,000. Even with the grant the city would have to pay up front and then get reimbursed.

"That seems a little over the top to me. I'm going to keep an open mind and hopefully get a better understanding what they intend to devote $250,000 to," said Michael Passero, City Councilor.

"The pipe that burst in that wall, there are problems all throughout the lines in the pipes, throughout the building, so it's not an immediate pipe fix," Mayor Finizio said.

Ledge Light wants a "plan of remediation" by next Friday and repairs made a week after that. A tight schedule and what the Mayor says is just the tip of the iceberg for what is a long list of capital improvements, not taken care of over the years.

"It would mean higher taxes I imagine," the Mayor said. "We have to pay for it and that's a reality."

The one thing the Mayor and the city councilor would both like to see is a comprehensive look at what total repairs are needed there.

City Hall mold repairs to cost $250k

NEW LONDON, CT (WFSB) -

A leaky pipe and mold inside New London City Hall will have to be fixed immediately, according to officials with a local health district.

After an inspection on Jan. 10, Ledge Light Health District officials slapped the city with an order on Thursday.

The Ledge Light Health District officials said the city has to come up with a remediation plan for the leaky pipe and mold by Jan. 24.

City officials have to repair the steam pipe and remove the mold by Jan. 31.

New London Mayor Daryll Finizio said the repairs are "doable."

"It absolutely is, if the council acts," Finizio said. "I hope they act and don't drag their feet on this."

On Tuesday, the City Council will vote on spending $250,000 to underwrite the repairs and apply for state funding to cover it.

"But our budgets are very, very limited, so we don't have the direct funds to make these repairs," said New London Mayor Daryll Finizio.

"I'm really skeptical that it should cost that much money to fix a leaky steam pipe," said councilman Michael Passero. "I have a lot of questions as to how it got to this point."

Stamford, CT (PRWEB) January 15, 2014

A mold problem was discovered in Greens Farms Elementary in Connecticut. But according to a report from westport-news.com published on January 09, 2013, it was only found out when water repairs in the school were implemented. In connection with it, My Cleaning Products shared a mold removal tip how the public could prevent it from becoming a hidden problem that causes a lot of huge spending.

The report said that the bursting of a fire sprinkler in January 06 was the cause of the water repairs that needed in the school, My Cleaning Products related. It brought quite a damage and particularly left the district with $25,000 to take care of for the mold remediation process, it detailed.

Based on the report, the fungus was specifically found in the catwalk of the section affected by the burst. And as of January 13, MCP shared that the mold cleanup was ongoing while the area was contained and access to it was limited to protect the students. All work was expected to be finished next week.

Here's an excerpt from the post Mold Discovered in Greens Farms Elementary School by My Cleaning Products.

On January 6, a water damage occurred in Greens Farms Elementary School in Connecticut. A fire sprinkler pipe burst and caused quite a damaged. But the problem did not end there.

While water repairs were being done on the damaged section, mold was found in its catwalk area along with lead in the hallway. Good thing that a test for asbestos turned out negative, said the school district's business manager, Elio Longo.

The late discovery of mold at Greens Farms Elementary School is a proof that although it isn't visible, the fungus could have already started an infestation, said My Cleaning Products. That, it stated, could then bring in a lot of structural and financial problems.

Because of that, MCP stressed that it is imperative to detect and kill mold as early as possible. To do that, it stated that one must open his eyes to mold signs. Additionally, it said that a person must prepare mold remediation solutions to get the treatment done promptly.

Of all the mold removal products though, the company asserted that its Molderizer and Safe Shield are the best. It explained that they make the right choices because they are both effective and safe.
