A $528,000 energy conservation grant is being sought through the Mississippi Development Authority to board up the windows inside the county library to cut down on mold and moisture.
The grant would fund major improvements, including removal and replacement of the heating and cooling system.
County Engineer Tom Wallace Cox told supervisors on Monday that $698,500 in improvements were needed at the library to address four major problems:
• Excessive moisture.
• Excessive mold.
• Excessive energy bills.
• Rotten laminated beams, which were just found on Jan. 4.
He estimated that the new energy measures proposed for the library would cost $528,000 of the overall $698,500 project which includes engineering fees.
For years the library has been plagued by leaks, heating and air conditioning issues and mold outbreaks that have ruined books and other holdings.
