The Matlacha/Pine Island Fire Control District and Lee County Emergency Management are hosting a Hurricane Seminar on May 26th.

When:      May 26th, 2022
Time:        6:00 P.M.
Where:     Pine Island United Methodist Church
Address:  5701 Pine Island Rd, Bokeelia, FL 33922
Cost: Free

This is a great opportunity to learn about hurricane preparedness. In addition, you may obtain your hurricane sticker during that time to ease re-entry onto the island if checkpoints are implemented. The sticker is placed inside your car window and will be valid until 2023. Here are a few things to bring and what you need to do to get your sticker:

• You can obtain two stickers per drivers license
• You must provide proof of residency (drivers license with district address, utility bill, tax bill, etc.)
• You will need to provide license plate number(s)
• You will need to fill out a short application

This program is designed to ease re-entry. This is a voluntary program and is not a requirement.  Residents are still able to re-enter by providing proof of residency at checkpoints when implemented. If you have any questions please call the Matlacha/Pine Island Fire Control District at (239)283-0030.

Sincerely,

Chief Jason M. Martin
In cooperation with the Matlacha/Pine Island Fire Control District
