This proactive investment in our infrastructure will allow Enoch City to build large, strategically placed storm basins to control water flow during storms, helping prevent the kind of severe water damage our community has faced in the past. We appreciate your understanding as we take these steps toward a stronger, storm-ready Enoch City.
Affordable flood insurance is not readily available from most of the commercial insurance providers due to the risk associated with flooding. To help the public, the NFIP is managed by FEMA to mitigate risk. To become a member of the NFIP, Enoch City officials met with Utah Floodplain Management to learn the processes. A resolution was approved to start the process. At the October 20, 2021 Enoch City Council Meeting, the approval was given to apply and an ordinance was approved.
The initial phase of our membership is called the "Emergency Phase" and Enoch City will now be working on the requirements in the subdivision ordinance to improve standards on development, potential building standards according to the international building code, and other parameters of NFIP.
Landowners can obtain flood insurance from their carrier once the application is processed. More information can be located at: https://www.floodsmart.gov/
