Fort Smith Times Record
To address black mold in Fort Smith s Fire Station 1, officials have had to look beneath the surface literally.
The fire station at 200 N. Fifth St. had Aspergillus and Cladosporium fungi in September from groundwater that collected in its floor vents. The removal of the mold has turned into a process involving water suction, demolition and a remodel.
The remodel by Studio 6 Architects and Turn Key Construction of Fort Smith is expected to cost the city $487,900 and last 120 days. And until it s complete, firefighters are using a classroom and the engine bay as their living quarters. These guys have been out of their homes, said Fire Chief Phil Christensen.
