~State officials urge Floridians to prepare, take advantage of Sales Tax holiday~

The 2005 Atlantic hurricane season officially begins this Wednesday, June 1st. Hurricane forecasters are predicting an above-normal hurricane season and state officials urge residents to review their preparedness plans and re-stock disaster kits during the twelve-day sales tax holiday, which also starts June 1. “For six months each year, hurricanes are a fact of life in Florida and we must all be prepared,” said Governor Jeb Bush. “The state's new sales tax holiday is an opportunity to save money purchasing supplies every resident needs going into hurricane season. I urge all Floridians to take advantage of these savings and prepare now for the season ahead.”
