Hurricane Planning: Wrapup

Alright, time to review. Collier County hurricane preparedness should involve the following precautions:

  • Preparing an evacuation plan
  • Creating a disaster supply kit
  • Securing your home, boat, and other property
  • Carrying the correct paperwork in case of evacuation
  • Some useful websites with hurricane information for Naples residents:

  • www.Collierem.org
  • www.FloridaDisaster.org
  • www.Fema.gov
  • www.BoatUS.com

  • Worrying about hurricanes is not something that we in Naples spend too much time doing. If the potential for hurricane strike is the major reason you would avoid Naples as an area of residency, we urge you to talk to someone who lives here and has been through it all before. Reading about evacuating and boarding windows can make a disaster seem more imminent than it really is. It makes sense to get informed by a number of sources before deciding where you will live for the next five, ten, or twenty years!
