New Elevation Standards for New Jersey
“CHRISTIE ADMINISTRATION FILES RULE PACKAGE ESTABLISHING NEW ELEVATION STANDARD FOR NEW JERSEY
Action uses latest FEMA Elevation Standards to Ensure Resiliency in Future Storms and Protect Residents from Rising Flood Insurance Costs
Action uses latest FEMA Elevation Standards to Ensure Resiliency in Future Storms and Protect Residents from Rising Flood Insurance Costs
The Christie Administration has filed with the Office of Administrative Law an adoption package supporting final rules that will make permanent new statewide elevation standards based on Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) flood maps. This action, taken Monday, provides clear direction for residents as they rebuild from the devastating effects of Superstorm Sandy.
The Department of Environmental Protection’s (DEP) filing of documents supporting amendments to the state’s Flood Hazard Area Control Act keeps in place an emergency rule the Administration authorized in January. The emergency rule and its final amendments utilize FEMA’s recently released Advisory Base Flood Elevation (ABFE) maps as the statewide standard for elevation of homes in flood zones.”

Mike,
I hope this e-mail finds you well. I am writing tonight wearing two hats, first as President of Surf City Fire & EMS I would like to say thank you and the members of the Surf City Taxpayers Association for your donation of $1,000 to the company. Please share our gratitude for this donation and for the on-going support your members have given us for many years. Changing hats I am also writing in my role on the governing body as the chairman of the Beach Fees/Beach Replenishment Committee with an update on the beaches of Surf City. I have attached a document which I hope will give your members and the citizens of Surf City an idea of where we stand with the beaches so please share as widely as you can. Again, many thanks.
