As you know, hurricane season starts on June 1 and runs through November 30, 2023.

While the season peaks in mid-August, everyone should review their hurricane preparation plans and take advantage of the disaster preparedness sales tax holiday which runs now through June 9.  A second opportunity begins August 26 through September 8.  Here is a list of items that are exempt from tax during the sales tax holiday.

The Village of Estero’s website has a webpage which includes a list of important contacts, a list of emergency shelters and a link to Lee County’s All Hazards Guide.

In addition, there is everything you need to know about flood protection on the Village website.

Estero Fire Rescue will come to your community to review the importance of hurricane planning if you wish.  You may contact them at 239-390-8000.
