Flood Hazard Protection Ordinance and FEMA Flood Insurance rate maps

The City of Toledo participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).  The NFIP provides flood insurance to property owners and is a program managed by FEMA.  The City of Toledo is required to adopt the minimum standards for flood damage prevention in order to allow City of Toledo citizens the opportunity to continue to purchase flood insurance.  The State of Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) State Floodplain Program Coordinator reviewed Toledo Municipal Code Chapter 15.16 (Flood Hazard Protection) and identified that Chapter 15.16 must be updated to match the required language (verbatim) in the Code of Federal Regulations, pertaining to the NFIP.  New Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMS), Flood Insurance Study (FIS), Floodplain Development Permit and the new flood hazard protection ordinance are available below.
