George Gardner's St. Augustine Report: VIC ventilation errors - who pays?

George Gardner's St. Augustine Report: VIC ventilation errors - who pays?

Commissioners approved $100,000 for immediate remediation and the hiring of a construction litigation attorney to oversee who's going to pay for an apparent design flaw that forced closing of our Visitor Center (VIC) restrooms until January.
"This project was handled by outside contractors," City Attorney Ron Brown told commissioners, "and right now there's a lot of finger-pointing among them."
A ceiling collapse over the restrooms revealed excessive moisture in the overhead ventilation and air-conditioning systems. While corrections are made, portable restrooms have been placed outside the VIC. More upscale temporary facilities are expected to be set later this week.
