FLOODPLAIN INFORMATION The Village of Elm Grove has initiated flood mitigation proj- ects in an effort to reduce the risk of flooding and improve flood risk awareness and preparedness in the Village. Floods are one of the most common hazards in the Unit- ed States. The effects of floods can be local, impacting a neighborhood or community, or very large, affecting entire river basins and multiple states. The current Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM, floodplain map) for the Village went in to effect on November 5, 2014. The FIRM has taken into account the Village’s ex- tensive flood mitigation efforts. The current floodplain maps as well as the current Flood Insurance Study (FIS) are available for viewing at Village Hall and the Elm Grove Public Library located at 13600 Juneau Blvd. You may also view the maps on the Village’s website www.elmgrovewi.org or may be accessed on FEMA’s webpage www.fema.gov. Village staff can assist you in determining if your property is located within the floodplain. It is important to note that even though individual properties may not be included within the 100-yard floodplain boundary provided by FEMA, there is still a chance that your property may be at risk from flood damage. Homeowners within and outside of the floodplain may purchase flood insurance to protect their homes and their valuables. Insurance is available from the federal government or through a private insurance provider. If you already have flood insurance, check with your insurance provider to ensure that you have insur- ance on both your home and the contents within it. More information on flood insurance can be found at www.floodsmart.gov. You can also take steps to reduce the risk of flood damage. These steps include: installing landscaping features to absorb excess water in the ground, direct- ing downspouts away from the home, keeping window wells free of debris, properly disposing of grass clippings and other debris, and grading to direct water flow away from your home. Publications are available at Village Hall outlining various aspects of flooding. Vil- lage staff is also available to assist property owners and make recommendations on how to reduce flood risks. Pictures of past flooding events are available for viewing at Village Hall. If you are interested in looking at photos from the 1973, 1998, 2007, 2008 or 2009 flooding events, please stop by the front desk of Village Hall and ask to view the Flooding Pictures. For more information please contact: Tom Harrigan, Zoning & Planning Administrator at 262-782-6700 or tharrigan@elmgrovewi.org 29
