13 | LPAs J. Vargas and D. Campos met with Center Director Sandra Phelps for a complaint investigation regarding the above allegation. Present were 4 staff and 13 preschool children in care. It was alleged that the facility has mold. During the course of the investigation, interviews and observations were conducted and pertinent records reviewed. LPAs did not observe signs of mold nor detect any mildew odor. Per center Director the facility had the carpet tested for mold on 2/24/24 where no mold was detected. Additionally, the facility had an environmental investigation conducted on 7/25/24 which concluded that there was no evidence of immediate health risks to current occupants. Although third party testing conducted did not confirm signs of mold in the classroom, another party reported concerns regarding mold in the facility. Based on the investigative findings, there was no evidence to determine whether or not facility has mold. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur. Therefore, the allegation is unsubstantiated.
