Spring Street fire cleanup expected to start on Monday

The charred remains of the four Spring Street buildings destroyed in an April 7 arson will likely start to come down on Monday.
According to Friday Harbor Town Administrator Denice Kulseth, the two insurance companies that underwrote the policies on the buildings – Farmers Insurance and Liberty Mutual – have agreed to hire local company MEM Enterprises to demolish and haul away what remains of the structures.
MEM expects to start work on Monday and has estimated that the project will take two weeks to complete.
It’s not yet known when Spring Street will reopen to traffic.
“The Town will need to ensure the site does not present a safety hazard to vehicles or pedestrians and that any traffic routing makes sense from a safety perspective,” Kulseth explained.
