Fort Myers offers nearly $2M in Hurricane Ian recovery funds with June deadline

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Three years after Hurricane Ian devastated Southwest Florida, the City of Fort Myers is urging residents to apply for remaining hurricane recovery assistance before time runs out.

The city has $1.7 million left from its original $3.1 million allocation through the state’s Hurricane Housing Recovery Program. Since the program launched weeks after Ian hit in September 2022, only 12 families have received assistance totaling $1.4 million.
