[cid:image002.jpg@01D21EFA.4D16E8D0] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE October 5, 2016 Contact: Michael Peltier (850) 513-3774 (850) 264-7702 (cell) Citizens is Ready for Hurricane Matthew, Are You? TALLAHASSEE, FL- Citizens Property Insurance Corporation is urging policyholders to take precautions to protect themselves and their families as Hurricane Matthew threatens strong winds, heavy rains, storm surge and flooding along Florida’s east coast. As Citizens ramps up its own preparation and response efforts, now is the time for all policyholders to prepare for the potential impact of Matthew, the most powerful hurricane to threaten Florida in more than a decade. “Policyholders need to remember that their personal safety is the highest priority,” said Barry Gilway, Citizens President, CEO and Executive Director. “Take precautions and follow instructions of local emergency management agencies. Citizens is ready to help you recover.” Citizens has made the necessary initial contacts to deploy all the independent adjusters needed to service claims following the storm as it coordinates response efforts with state and local authorities. To help our policyholders stay abreast of developments, Citizens has launched a Storm Tracker feed<file:///C:\Users\lrodriguez\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary%20Internet%20Files\Content.Outlook\WTH32CO2\01272016CC_EWR%20Team_ss.docx>, which delivers real-time National Hurricane Center updates directly to your desktop and mobile device.
