Every Cloud has a Silver Lining!
To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow!
Do your Part to Conserve Our Water Resources
It's dry season in Southwest Florida. Each year between November and April, groundwater supplies are reduced due to limited rainfall. Conserving water at home can help reduce the stress on our aquifers and keep wells from running dry.
Visit leegov.com/water for tips on how you can do your part to keep Lee County's water flowing.

LEE COUNTY PROPERTY APPRAISER
Lee County Property Appraiser Matt Caldwell announced the addition of aerial photography to the Property Appraiser’s website (www.leepa.org) for access by taxpayers, appraisers, contractors and other interested parties.
The aerial photography was taken in the days after Hurricane Ian’s landfall on Sept. 28 and will help the Property Appraiser’s Office identify properties impacted by the storm.
Lee County Property Appraiser Matt Caldwell encourages all taxpayers who were impacted by Hurricane Ian to visit the website to provide staff with their contact information and describe their damage.
The Property Appraiser’s Office will use residents’ contact information to keep them informed about any changes that could provide tax relief.
