Summary
Officials reported a fire at Duncan’s building, multiagency response including a Coast Guard flyover and debris washing onto North Key; city, county and state agencies assisted with containment and debris removal preparations.
The commission heard an update on a recent fire at "Duncan’s" building and the city’s debris-management response. Chair (S1) said she signed an emergency declaration after the fire; staff and county partners helped remove debris and the Coast Guard flew over to track where material was moving.
Robert (S3), the on-scene emergency official, said the fire marshal’s inspection and a criminal investigation were underway and that debris pieces were found on North Key. "Kat Camick's office got the Coast Guard to fly over to look at the debris pool, and see where it was going, which it was going toward Don Don Island," Robert said. Staff described coordination with county, state and federal agencies and emphasized meticulous documentation for FEMA and insurance reimbursement.
