A panel studying the future development of the old Laconia State School complex has voted to authorize a study on the extent of hazardous materials that may exist in buildings on the site.
The Lakeshore Redevelopment Planning Commission authorized a contractor to conduct the survey in order to determine the presence of asbestos, lead paint, PCBs, mold, and other hazardous substances which may be in buildings that once housed the state institution for the developmentally disabled, and later a prison.
