FEMA FLOOD ZONE BANDS The Traffic Signs and Marking (TSM) Division has collaborated with Charlotte County Emergency Management to replace all Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Zone Evacuation Bands. Over 13,000 new zone bands have been printed, with installation starting from the red zones and progressing through orange, yellow, and green. These bands are attached to stop signs, making it easier for residents to identify their respective evacuation zones. The introduction of these evacuation zone bands not only serves the community but also marks a significant improvement for Public Works. Clearly defined zones allow crews to quickly pinpoint areas during storm preparation and recovery, thereby improving response times and coordination. Furthermore, this initiative enhances staff communication in the field and enables them to address public inquiries about zones with greater confidence.
