What does it mean if my property is in a FEMA- mapped floodplain?
Article VIII of Title 16, Floodplain Management, addresses certain areas of the Town subject to periodic flooding, causing serious damages to properties within these areas. Relief is available in the form of federally subsidized flood insurance as authorized by the National Flood Insurance Act.
The Town has chosen to become a participating community in the National Flood Insurance Program, and agrees to comply with the requirements of the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (P.L. 90-488, as amended).
