Yardley, Pennsylvania: $671,292
The borough of Yardley plans to elevate two homes that have experienced severe repetitive loss during past flood events to two feet above the 100-year floodplain. There have been seven severe repetitive and repetitive loss paid claims across the two structures due to the Delaware River and Canal overflowing and flooding most of the borough. The project aims to minimize future flood damage and reduce losses by protecting the homeowners from future flooding.
