The Board of Education last week approved emergency repair work for the Columbia High School auditorium after a water faucet left on over the Memorial Day weekend sparked a flood that damaged the auditorium.
The board voted, 8-1, on the measure that authorizes repairs and clean-up of the auditorium, but does not indicate how much it will cost. Board Member Johanna Wright cast the lone opposing vote.
District Spokeswoman Suzanne Turner confirmed via email that "a water faucet was left on by a staff member which resulted in damage. The cost is still being assessed by our insurance company."
She declined to say who or what kind of staff member left the faucet on or if any punishment or discipline had resulted for the staff member.
