The 13 member task force established last year by the Florida to oversee the activities of Citizens Property Insurance Corp. will meet in Tampa Monday and Tuesday to discuss recommendations a preliminary report and discuss preparing a final report to present to the Legislature in March.
Recommendations contained in the preliminary report include capping homeowner’s coverage to three to five years, requiring hurricane-resistant home upgrades which would entice private insurers to take policyholders and to require homeowners to disclose a property’s vulnerability and modifications to reduce risk to buyers interested in purchasing their home.
