A new public opinion survey showed that as many as one-third of all Floridians are less prepared than they should be in the event of a major hurricane. That’s not a good thing.

With a simple theme calling on Floridians to “Get a plan!”, Florida emergency management and government officials are urging both residents and businesses to get hurricane disaster prepared by creating their own disaster plan using a new online disaster preparation tool.

“The 2006 hurricane season is less than a week away,“ said Lt. Gov. Jennings. “ I am urging all Floridians to take advantage of these new Web-based products and get a plan.”

The campaign includes television and radio advertisements, billboards and a new first-of-its-kind web-based family and business planning tool located at www.FloridaDisaster.org.
