    Bradenton and Manatee counties began resuming some normal operations on Monday as residents and workers continued to clean up after Hurricane Ian.

    Here’s what residents should know:

    3 locals dead

    Of the 68 confirmed deaths from Hurricane Ian, three were reported in Manatee County, the Florida District Coroner said Monday night.

    There are now three deaths in Sarasota, one in Hillsboro, and more deaths in southern counties.

    damage assessment

    Manatee County said in an email Monday that the investigation is about 90% complete, with residential damages calculated at $72 million and commercial damages at $13.50. there were:

    • 7 structures destroyed
    • 173 heavily damaged buildings
    • 610 Slight damage to structures
    • 1,809 structures were affected.

    Of the 232 traffic lights in the county, 104 are broken, 44 have been repaired, and 15 still have generator power.

    The following roads remain closed due to high tide.

    • Wauchula Rd., 1 mile north of Ballard
    • 3775 Singletary Rd.,
    • 30607 Singletary Rd., Myakka
    • Clay Gully Road, Myakka

    • SR70, Manatee/DeSoto County Line

    For Interstate 75:

    • Sarasota County – Exit 182 (Sumter Boulevard) ramp reopened
    • DeSoto County – Southbound US 17 lanes reopened, previously closed areas of northbound US 17 remain closed and may reopen tomorrow.

    blackout

    As of Monday morning, 38,950 FPL customers are still without power in Manatee County. This is down from the peak of 198,710.

    FPL shared a timeline on Saturday.

    • Northern County – Late Tuesday

    County Garbage, Rubbish Pickup & Recycling

    Manatee County’s regular solid waste collection resumed Monday.

    Starting today, residents can bring their garden storm debris (tree branches, palm leaves, and other plants) to the Manatee County landfill.

    County contractors are scheduled to begin collecting yard storm debris on Wednesday.

    Manatee County has hired three contractors to handle yard storm debris collection. In the aftermath of Hurricane Irma in 2017, the county only had one contractor, his.

    The cleanup is expected to take several months. Contractors are still gathering crews, Manatee County information outreach manager Bill Logan said Monday.

    One challenge, says Logan, is that communities from Estero to Hudson are looking for the same kind of help after Hurricane Ian.

    “We clean up for months, but we learned a lesson from Irma,” Logan said.

    Three collection and management sites will be set up for transport to landfills, he said.

    recycling

    Recycling for county residents has been suspended until further notice. In the meantime, recycling can be done 24/7 at:

    • GT Bray Park, 5502 33rd Ave. Dr. W., Bradenton
    • Braden River Park, 5201 51st. St. E., Bradenton
    • Blackstone Park, 2112 14th Ave. W., Palmetto
    • Lakewood Ranch Park, 5350 Lakewood Ranch Blvd., Bradenton
    • Buffalo Creek Park 7550 69th St. E., Palmetto
    • Bayfront Park, 310 North Bay Blvd., Anna Maria
    • Manatee Public Beach, 4000 Gulf Dr., Holmes Beach
    • Coquina Beach, 2650 Gulf Drive South, Bradenton Beach
    • Bennett Park, 400 Cyprus Creek Blvd., Bradenton
    • Palma Sola Park, 7915 40th Ave W., Bradenton

    Bradenton City Garbage, Debris Pickup & Recycling

    The city of Bradenton resumed regular garbage collection on Monday.

    On Tuesday, Bradenton debris haulers will begin collecting debris from Hurricane Ian according to the following guidelines:

    • Separate bags and barrels of debris from loose piles. Contracted debris haulers do not collect bags or barrels. They are individually collected by the City of Bradenton’s Yard Waste Officer.
    • Do not place debris near obstructions such as water meter/backflow assemblies, mailboxes, or directly under power lines.
    • Separate yard waste/debris from other types of waste that may be placed on the curb.
    • Do not pile loose debris on top of bags, barrels, or other waste, or vice versa. This will delay collection.
    • Rake up the fallen leaves left after the debris hauler has collected the pile. If you put these in a bag or blue garden waste barrel, the city will collect them as part of your regular garden waste.

    The City of Bradenton Recycling Center will not be reopened until Monday, October 10th. Waste Pro, the city’s recycler, is not accepting recycling this week.

    Boiling water notifications remain in effect for three mobile home communities: Terra Ceia Village, Leisure Lake Co-Op, and Sugar Creek Mobile Home Park Estates.
