Roseville DMV Closed for Mold Removal

The Office closed Wednesday afternoon following test results that confirmed black mold was present in the office.

According to Jan Mendoza, a spokesperson with the California DMV, employees noticed a “musky smell” coming from the janitor’s closet in the back of the office about a couple weeks ago. Testing results came back today confirming that that smell was black mold, or stachybotrys chartarum mold.

The Roseville office has been closed indefinitely as crews come in to analyze what needs to be cleaned, removed and repaired, Mendoza said.

The Roseville DMV, located on Harding Boulevard, closed around 1:30 p.m. today, Nov. 2, and employees will be at the location today and tomorrow directing people to nearby offices. Signs will also be placed at the office to inform customers of the closure.

Exposure to mold can cause some health symptoms including irritated eyes and skin, nasal stuffiness and wheezing, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
