HURRICANE RESOURCES

The Florida League of Cities is committed to providing our members with tools, resources and information to help ensure cities and their residents are safe and protected during natural disasters and emergencies.

This page contains resources for cities to refer to before, during and after a disaster.

Insurance Reminders

• Find Your Policy.  Locate and familiarize yourself with your property insurance policy. You may also want to reach out to your insurance company contact right away, as there may be certain pre-storm services available as well as policyholder responsibilities to preserve covered property.
• Secure Photos.  We also recommend you take photos of your facilities, buildings, contents, outdoor property, etc. and document them – both pre-storm and post-storm.
• Keep Your Receipts.  We also suggest you keep copies of any receipts for eligible purchases made relating to post-storm loss costs incurred including: costs to preserve or relocate damaged property, costs to minimize or mitigate property damage such as emergency water extraction or tarping, etc. Depending upon the terms of your property coverage, you may be entitled to reimbursement for these expenses.
• Assure Expiring and Renewing Property Policies Are Paid Up and In Force.  The vast majority of local government property insurance policies currently in-force are effective until October 1, 2023, at 12:01 a.m. (*again, please familiarize yourself with your specific policy*).
