A free informational seminar is being held at 2 p.m. on August 31st at the Cape Coral Lee County Public Library.

Lee County Clerk of the Courts and Comptroller Kevin Karnes said, “As property values continue to rise in Lee County, homeowners may be concerned about the assessed values listed on their TRIM notices.
