Craven County Schools Emergency Generators

Organization:

County of Craven

Amount:

$1,393,800.00

Program Area:

Disaster Recovery Grant Program

County of Applicant:

Craven

Year:

2020

Description:

Loss of power and HVAC at Craven County schools following Hurricane Florence resulted in extensive mold throughout the buildings extending the time that schools were closed after the storm and dramatically increasing the cost of repairs to the schools. Golden LEAF disaster recovery grant funds will be used to install emergency generators at the five schools that experienced the most extensive mold damage. Maintaining HVAC to prevent mold will reduce time the schools will need to be closed, enabling partial reopenings, and reduce expenses incurred.
