Flood Map Modernization Program and Flood Insurance

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has completed the Flood Map Modernization Program. There have been several areas of the city that have been placed into the High Risk Flood zone (100 year flood plain).  If your property has been placed into this Zone, you likely have received a letter from your lending company requiring you to secure flood insurance.

Flood insurance can be very costly. The City is in the process of gathering information to develop a policy on what can be done to assist our residences with this situation. 

FEMA has developed a Preferred Risk Policy Eligibility Extension program. This program, if you qualify, helps property owners receive a two-year lower cost insurance. You may read more on this matter by visiting the FEMA web site at: www.FloodSmart.gov/PRPEExtension.

The Building Department will also have copies of this program for you to pick up at their office. If you have any questions please feel free to contact either Building Commissioner at 440-442-7403 or Assistant City Engineer Brian Mader at 216-731-6255.
