For the second summer in a row, the air conditioning system at the Country Club Mall in LaVale is not functioning properly. Stores have gone without air or installed portable systems to keep employees and shoppers cool. Some stores have limited their hours or closed entirely on the hottest days.  Calls to the local mall office by WCBC were directed to Namdar Realty, the mall owners, but messages to that office have not been returned. The mall’s theatre and Walmart have separate cooling systems that are functioning.
