Summary
Hurricane season looms, and Longboat Key is gearing up with a smart new plan: a color-coded decal system to help residents and businesses safely return and recover. After Hurricane Helene trapped cheesecake shop owner Gary Hagen with floating movie memorabilia, officials realized the real challenge is getting people back on the island quickly and safely—without risking lives or infrastructure. Fire Chief Paul Dezzi warns of flooded roads, cut-off water, and unpredictable wind speeds. The new decals, available now at police and town hall, let authorities prioritize business owners for cleanup, while reminding everyone that resilience starts with preparation—and community.
