3 sleeping cabins damaged after fire overnight in Kingston, Ont.
Flames also spread to two neighbouring cabins, causing enough damage to make them “unliveable.”
“One was totally consumed, and the two adjacent were damaged by fire. I believe that the three will need to be replaced. We’re approximating the damage at approximately $60,000,” Posadowski said.A total of three cabin residents have been affected by the fire. The city is unwilling to comment on the status of those residents.
“I won’t be able to speak to somebody’s personal situation. But I can confirm that with Our Livable Solutions, we are working to support that any affected individuals are supported and offered support and accommodations as they would need at this time,” Heather Scrannage, manager of housing and homelessness, said.The cause of the fire is still under investigation. The city says it’s working on ways to replace the cabins. The city recently increased the number of cabins at the site to 15.
