Lakeview, Michigan Middle School facing $138,000 asbestos removal
Lakeview Middle School will undergo a $138,000 project to remove asbestos from the ceiling of its auditorium this summer, according to the school district’s deputy superintendent. Asbestos exposure is linked to mesothelioma and other diseases. During the remodeling of the auditorium, asbestos was discovered in the ceiling. The school originally planned to encapsulate the asbestos with paint, but discovered that it was loose to the touch and crumbling from the ceiling. The asbestos removal project will delay the completion of auditorium renovations until September 1.
