Residents of the Borough of Red Hill will be able to purchase flood insurance up to the limits
under the Regular Phase of the program. However, there is a 30-day waiting period before flood
insurance coverage goes into effect. For single-family dwellings, the building coverage limit is
$250,000, and the contents coverage limit is $100,000. Renters can also protect their belongings
by purchasing contents coverage. For commercial properties, the building and contents coverage
limits are both $500,000.
Lenders must require borrowers whose properties are located in a designated flood hazard
area to purchase flood insurance as a condition of receiving a federally backed mortgage loan in
accordance with the Federal Disaster Protection Act of 973.

are over 5.5 million flood insurance policies in more than 21,000 participating communities
nationwide. For more information, contact your insurance company.
