Asbestos remediation of Madison County Government Center costs jump to $3.5 million [View all]

ANDERSON – The estimated cost to remediate the asbestos in the Madison County Government Center has jumped by 75 percent.

At Tuesday's meeting of the Madison County Council, County Administrator Dan Dykes said the projected cost is now $3.5 million. The original estimate was placed at $2 million.

Dykes said the $3.5 million includes the cost of the asbestos removal, new fireproofing, moving and storage of all the county offices, new ceiling tiles, paint and carpeting.

That figure doesn’t include the estimated $420,000 the county will spend to lease space at the Anderson University building at the Flagship Enterprise Center for the court system and space in the First Savings Tower for the remaining county offices.
