According to an article in Newsday on 11/5/21 at https://www.newsday.com/business/flood-insurance-rate-increases-fema-nfip-climate-change-1.50411873

current flood insurance policies in Long Beach, NY which cost $1,105 per year will increase to $6,011 in the future.


Paying a flood insurance premium of $6,000 per year is similar to taking on a second mortgage which most people can't afford. I have read in the N.J. Patch that N.J. lawmakers have a Bill that would reform new FEMA flood insurance rates. The article can be found at: https://patch.com/new-jersey/tomsriver/nj-lawmakers-bill-would-reform-new-fema-flood-insurance-program.


Please look at the above bill, and support stopping the astronomical rise in FEMA flood insurance rates.
