Attached is a Call for Action on the 2018 Dwelling Insurance Rate Filing.

Dwelling policyholders in Southern Shores are facing an increase of up to 39% on their wind coverage if this filing is not denied or negotiated to a lower rate by NC DOI Commissioner Mike Causey.

The deadline for comments is this Friday, March 23rd and time is of the essence.  A public comment session will be held in Raleigh also on Friday at the Albemarle Building from 10 am to 4 pm.
