West Wildwood - A recent article in the Press of AC indicated that FEMA in October 2020, will initiate a new flood insurance guideline. This guide will take into account such factors as elevation, nearness to water and what a municipality has done to mitigate flooding. To my knowledge, our borough has not taken any proactive measures to deal with flooding. Commissioners wait until the damage is done. The crumbling bulkhead at the end of Bay Ave. was destroyed during Jonas, putting the entire borough under 3 feet of water. At that point, they decided to make repairs. What will happen to insurance premiums?
