Flagler takes closer look at possibility of 'sick building'

Tests conducted after several employees at Ops Center fall ill

BUNNELL, Fla. – Flagler County commissioners are expected to take a closer look at the results of tests taken at the County Operations Center building in Bunnell. 

The discussion comes after Sheriff Rick Staly wrote a five-page letter saying the building was causing workers to get sick.

As a result, Staly removed all his employees from the building, along Moody Boulevard, in June after several fell ill with rashes and breathing problems. 

Last month, a doctor delivered a report indicating no mold or toxins were found inside the building and it was safe. 

Another expert was hired by Staly to provide a second opinion and is expected to report his findings during a workshop Thursday. 

The meeting is scheduled to begin at 3 p.m. at the Emergency Operations Center.
