Mayor (Speaker 1) opened the briefing, said a fifth potential storm-related death was reported — 79-year-old Betty Doss of Heritage Drive in Madison — and noted the medical examiner would determine cause; he joined the family in mourning. He framed public safety and enabling NES to restore power as the community's top priorities.
