Much of the state's attention was trained on the Fort Myers area, where Hurricane Ian made landfall. The governor drew a comparison, offering that while more homes and infrastructure was damaged in Lee County, the Volusia beaches lost the most sand.

"I tell you, this erosion was worse than they had in Southwest Florida. They had serious problems there, don't get me wrong, but this has been that one-two punch I think with the two storms," DeSantis said.

The Legislature eliminated property taxes for residents whose homes were rendered uninhabitable because of the hurricanes. “Everybody that lives in a coastal community knows that the lifeblood of our economy is our beaches. No beach, no Daytona Beach," Renner said."And that’s true for all the beaches.”

Daytona Beach Shores Mayor Nancy Miller said it’s been important that the government funding programs are being done with unprecedented speed.
