Ormond first responders and city employees recently participated in a county-wide, multi-agency training that simulated what would happen if a building collapsed in the Daytona Beach Shores area.
“Its so rare that we get to collaborate with other counterparts [ahead of a crisis],” said Pauline Dulang, a city of Ormond Beach public information officer.
The training was held in conjunction with the Federal Emergency Management Agency from April 15-18 at the Volusia County Emergency Operations Center with training presentations, collaborative, problem-solving discussions and a crisis simulation, a Volusia County press release said. The simulated crisis scenario was based on condominium building that collapsed in the Miami Surfside suburb in 2021, Dulang said.
