Hurricane Ian - IT’S OVER … BUT DO YOU NEED HELP?

IT’S OVER … BUT DO YOU NEED HELP? 

Tropical Storm Watch and Warning dropped for the Middle Keys. The surge and flooding threat is over.  

The City of Marathon City Hall has reopened today, Sept. 29, for business. Employees continue to perform damage assessments and repair minor damage.  

Residents with special needs who cannot perform basic repairs or tasks associated with storm recovery, can call the Fire Department (305-743-5266) or Public Works (305-743-0033) Departments for help.   

Finally, the City asks residents to stop and take pictures of downed trees before beginning any major project. Lot clearing requires a permit, and illegal clearing under the guise of storm damage will be subject to code compliance measures. Starting today, the City will begin expedited permitting (digital and in-person submittal). In the scope of work, please include the words “Hurricane Ian” to identify permits to expedite.
