Amber Broussard pauses in reflection in the graded lot where her home stood at 5710 Whistling Duck Dr. she shared with her boyfriend Bill Whitaker and their two dogs in Barefoot Resort. “I want to make sure this doesn’t happen again,” she said referring to the lack of warning received about the fire. “Brush fires and wildfires are always going to occur, we can’t stop that. But we can put plans and protocols in place to make sure people don’t have to wake up in the middle of the night and have less than 5 minutes to get out of their home before it burns.”
