What public records show for food service in Sunfish Lake
Past emergency
Sunfish Lake and DR-4069
FEMA declared major disaster DR-4069, severe storms and flooding, on July 6, 2012 for Dakota County, which includes Sunfish Lake, for an incident that began June 14, 2012. It is one of 4 major disaster declarations covering Dakota County since 2000. Storms like this cut power and water and close roads, which takes kitchens and walk-in coolers offline. A refrigerated trailer can save the stock in a failed walk-in first, and a kitchen trailer can follow if the building in Sunfish Lake stays closed.
Major construction
Planning around construction in Sunfish Lake
FEMA's Public Assistance records list no large road, water, or utility repair for Dakota County since 2016. Building work can still close a kitchen in Sunfish Lake for weeks, and a leased kitchen trailer keeps the facility's own staff cooking on site.
Major renovation
Kitchen renovations in Sunfish Lake
Remodeling a commercial kitchen in Sunfish Lake does not have to stop meal service: a kitchen trailer and a refrigerated trailer can run beside the building for the length of the job.
Emergency equipment access
Getting equipment to Sunfish Lake
Minnesota is in FEMA Region 5, which coordinates federal disaster support with the state's emergency management agency; locally, Dakota County emergency management leads response. Those public operations are separate from our rental deliveries. Projects in Minnesota are outside our Virginia lead market and are quoted case by case, with delivery distance and timing set out in the quote. Equipment for Sunfish Lake would travel I-94 and local routes, as it would for nearby West St. Paul and Mendota Heights. We confirm the route and site access with you before dispatch.

Planning scenario · illustrative, not a past project
Emergency plan: a hospital kitchen in Sunfish Lake
A worked example of how we would plan temporary food service here, using Sunfish Lake's own public records and our current price list. It describes what a facility like this could do, not a job we have done.
1. Situation
Suppose a hospital kitchen in Sunfish Lake loses power for several days in an event like the one behind FEMA's DR-4069 (severe storms and flooding, declared July 6, 2012). Meals still have to go out while the kitchen is cleaned, inspected, and repaired.2. Trailer setup
A 28ft Mobile Kitchen, 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4), and 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4), placed beside the building so staff can keep cooking, washing, and storing food on site.3. Site and delivery
Equipment would travel the I-94 corridor, with the final route and gate access confirmed with the facility before dispatch. Plan on roughly 5 hours from parking to cooking for the kitchen and dishwashing trailers, about 1 hour for cold storage, and 4–6 hours more if a ramp is needed instead of stairs.4. Timeline
First call: confirm power, water, and drain options. Delivery follows once the route is set. The rental runs by the week, so it ends as soon as the permanent kitchen passes inspection.5. Estimated rental cost
28ft Mobile Kitchen $4,995 + 22-26ft Low Temp Dish Trailer (Tier 1-4) $4,995 + 20ft Refrigerated Trailer (Tier 1-4) $1,895 = $11,885 per month on our starting price list for a one-month emergency rental. Delivery, setup, and pickup are added in the quote. This is an estimate, not a quote.
