We have closed and sealed the stadium.
Specialist contractors have investigated the causes of the mould growth and type of mould and are determining a timeline for treatment.
The mould present impacts timber, so effective treatment will involve lifting the stadium floorboards and an underlying membrane to allow access for scrubbing of bearers, joists and stumps.
The bearers, joists and stumps will then need to be assessed by a structural engineer to determine if any need replacing.
Along with that process, sources of moisture underneath the stadium will need to be identified and addressed, and adequate ventilation ensured to prevent return of mould growth.
A new stadium floor will then need to be installed.
The existing floor will not be able to be reused.
Council is committed to ensuring work is completed as quickly as possible to minimise inconvenience and impact for the school, and for community activities.
