Danbury Airport hangar housng refrigerated trailers as overflow morgue

One of the City owned hangers at Danbury Municipal Airport is serving a different purpose than usual.  Mayor Mark Boughton says the City, in collaboration with Danbury Hospital, is using a hanger to house two refrigerated trailers to serve as an overflow for the Danbury Hospital morgue.  Boughton stressed that right now there are no deceased individuals at the airport. Because of the pandemic there are new requirements for funeral homes to protect their staff so it takes longer for planning and conducting of memorials and funerals, regardless of the cause of death.   The overflow demand is due to a slower than normal processing of those who have passed.
