The contracts for the demolition of houses at 624 Cherry and 615 Vine Street were changed with a $17,392 addendum, approved by the Chillicothe City Council. City Clerk Roze Frampton says the asbestos abatement contractor found more asbestos than was known to be on the sites.
The property on Vine Street will also require the removal of building materials stored in the house to complete the abatement.
The addendum increases the contract with Perkins Dozing to a total of $47,142
