Levee Recertification Project

The Village has been notified by FEMA that the Waterloo Levee must meet certain requirements to continue to be shown as providing 100-year flood protection on the floodplain maps for the Village.  These maps are used to determine flood insurance requirements for property owners.  Areas that may be subject to certain building and development restrictions are identified on these maps.

The Village Board has decided to move forward with the design and potential construction of improvements to the existing levee in order to meet FEMA's requirements and to ultimately maintain the accreditation of the levee on FEMA floodplain maps.

Please check the website often.  We will be posting new information regarding the progress of the levee improvements as it is presented to the board.
