Cardozo Closed Again!

Seems like nothing can go right up at Cardozo High School. It’s been closed twice in the past two weeks when mercury droplets were discovered on stairwells. Each time, EPA crews have come through to clean up the spilled mercury. Well, let’s make that three times, as Cardozo will be closed on Monday due to still more mercury found on the campus. Councilman Graham is pretty teed off since they should have fixed it right the first time.

“This is either gross incompetence or the most willful criminal behavior,” Graham said. “This is surreal. Either we’re not really cleaning up the building or someone is out to get us here . . . This is really astounding.”

Looks like some fun questions will need to be answered.
