The City of Lauderhill participates in the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). That allows local insurance agents to sell a NFIP flood insurance policy to homeowners under rules and standard rates set by the federal government. Any house in Lauderhill can be covered by a flood insurance policy. The City is a Class 7 community. This means that everyone in Lauderhill that is currently in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) is entitled to a 15% discount on their flood insurance premium. Our community number if 120044. Be sure to give that information to your insurance agency to ensure you get your discount. Do to not wait for the next flood to buy insurance. Most of the time there is a waiting period before the policy goes into effect.  There are lots of resources available about the Community Rating System (CRS) available.  The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) also has a variety of resources available.  The City mails out a brochure every year with important flood and emergency information for you.

The City maintains elevation certificates, flood insurance rate maps, and letters of map amendment documents. The new Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) have gone into effect as of August 18, 2014. The map below will allow you to locate your property and collect some information regarding your flood insurance and whether you are still required to carry flood insurance.
