From NBC-2 News Ft. Myers
“After a three-year effort spearheaded in part by Savarese, there’s a new partnership to help the entire region combat climate change, including impacts like sea level rise and increased storm intensity. It’s called the Southwest Florida Regional Resiliency Compact. All three coastal counties — Collier, Lee, and Charlotte — have agreed to join the compact, as have each of the incorporated cities, towns, and villages within them. Fourteen jurisdictions make up the compact. The last remaining jurisdiction was signed two months ago.” |
