City Keeping Close Watch on Property Tax Debate Proposals Could Hit Cape Coral Harder Than Most Florida Communities SUMMER 2 0 0 7 OnOn TheThe City Government A Quarterly Update From Your City Hall City Keeping Close Watch on Property Tax Debate Proposals could hit Cape Coral harder than most Florida communities The state Legislature in Tallahassee is recognizing what local governments have known for some time – the property tax system in Florida is broken. The Save Our Homes initiative is having the “unintended” consequences that some expertsCity predicted Government would occur – huge inequities in property taxes among property owners. Legislators in Tallahassee are discussing ways to address these inequities and fix the system. While the City agrees that this debate is long overdue, there is concern about how the proposals being discussed in Tallahassee could impact our city and the services we provide. Some elected state officials have criticized local Public safety accounts for 38 percent of the General Fund budget. governments and targeted these entities as the culprits for rising property taxes. That criticism seems a bit unfair considering the Legislature actually raised local property taxes by $500 million this year by shifting some of the HIGHLIGHTS state burden for school funding to local budgets (referred to as the Required Local Effort).

    All Hazards Guide Preparedness: It’s Everyone’s Responsibility Lee County 2017-2018 *The All Hazards Guide is also available on our website: www.LeeEOC.com. DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY To the Residents and Visitors of Southwest Florida, Some of you consider Lee County, Florida, your family’s vacation destination, while many others enjoy Southwest Florida year-round as they live, work and play. Lee County, located along Southwest Florida’s Gulf Coast, has a year-round population of nearly 700,000 residents, but climbs to over 1.3 million during the winter tourist, spring break and baseball spring-training seasons. While we all enjoy beautiful weather and lifestyle that Southwest Florida provides, we must also be prepared to overcome occasional threats. Each year is different, and history only reveals the past. However, we learn more each year, and our preparations are more refined. Due to the unpredictability, preparing to respond to these hazards must be as much a part of our lives as driving to work, or walking on the beach. Most of us realize the important of creating a plan to address as least some common hazards. Unfortunately, realization and preparation rarely prevent a disaster. Well prepared people and property survive more often, recover more quickly, and return to normal more easily. At the Lee County Department of Public Safety, we ask that you go just a bit further, and develop a “culture of preparedness” in your home. In doing so, share the plans of preparedness with your family and friends. Emergency Preparation can seem a daunting task, but this All Hazards Guide is filled with information and resources to get you on your way! On the most fundamental level, preparation involves acknowledging the real threat, identifying your options ahead of time, securing supplies and resources, and then when necessary, putting your plan into action.
