Today, April 28, 2025, FEMA announced the Town of Fort Myers Beach has met the requirements to be removed from probation under the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), effective November 18, 2025!
The Town accomplished the five action items set forth by FEMA, which will remove us from probation and will end the $50 surcharge that was added to all NFIP policies within the Town limits on November 18, 2024.
Thank you to Congressman Byron Donalds, Senator Rick Scott, Senator Ashley Moody, and our partners at FEMA for working with the Town to make this possible! We look forward to continuing our working relationship to further improve our floodplain management practices.
