The Village of Estero is seeking a Village resident who would like to volunteer to serve as a private member representative for the Village of Estero on the Lee County Program for Public Information Committee (PPI Committee).  The PPI Committee is a part of the requirements for the Community Rating System (CRS) program within the National Flood Insurance Program which seeks to make the community more resistant to flood damages and provides financial discounts to flood insurance policy holders.  Because of the points earned in this program, owners in the Village of Estero qualify for a 20% flood insurance discount.

The PPI Committee meets quarterly to discuss ways to continue/improve public outreach and communication on the flood hazards/risks and ways to mitigate against those risks for the Village of Estero.  The person’s residence must be located within either the AE or AH flood zone.

Interested persons are encouraged to submit a letter of interest, to Kristin Schumacher, Floodplain Manager via e-mail at schumacher@estero-fl.gov or by regular mail at Village of Estero, 9401 Corkscrew Palms Circle, Estero, FL  33928.
