Hurricane season has started. Now is the time to prepare.

Our community is in Evacuation Zone C and Flood Zone X.

Here are some things to consider:
• Check your insurance policy to make sure your unit has HO3 coverage.
• Line up a vendor to put up hurricane shutters before the storm hits. Shutters must be removed within 2 weeks after the end of the hurricane watch or warning.
• Have an evacuation plan.
• Sign up for weather and local municipal alerts.
• Take photos/videos of your property prior to the storm.
• Secure your property deed, insurance policies, and financial information in a watertight bag. Make sure you have an adequate supply of medications.
• Gas up your vehicles / Get cash
• Stock up on supplies: water, batteries, flashlights, non-perishable foods, radio, etc., some of which will be tax-free year-round beginning August 1.
• Secure all outdoor items
