At the Tuesday, July 17, Cedar Key City Commission Meeting, United States Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla Commander John Caddigan introduced Andy Render, US Coast Guard Auxiliary Division 15 Commander from Taylor and Hernando County. Render thanked the Cedar Key City Commission, the Cedar Key Police Department, and the University of Florida for helping implement a full, active auxiliary program in Cedar Key. Flotilla 15-2 serves Yankeetown and Cedar Key by backing up emergency operations and educating the citizenry regarding boating safety.
The helpfulness of the city, its police, and the university have been invaluable, he said, as he awarded representatives of each with a certificate of appreciation. Mayor Heath Davis, Police Chief Virgil Sandlin, and University of Florida Nature Coast Biological Station’s Dr. Savanna Barry graciously accepted their awards.
