Local firm braces for Hurricane Irma

RAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — Rockford Construction Chief Operating Officer Tom McGovern has been keeping a close eye on the weather.

“Through that region, the southeast region, we have projects that are directly in line with what’s coming,” he said.

With offices in Bonita Springs and a project underway in Key West, McGovern says the first concern is with employees and contractors.

With only one route out of Key West, once everything was tied down at the site, Rockford employees were told to head north.

“They actually have extra fuel and water to make sure that they make it through the entire state of Florida. They’re not going to stay in Florida. They’re going to move north, I think into the Tennessee areas,” McGovern said.
