Repetitive Loss Properties<br />

A high priority in <strong>the</strong> planning area is <strong>the</strong> reduction in <strong>the</strong> number of repetitive loss structures.<br />

These structures strain <strong>the</strong> National Flood Insurance Fund on a national basis by increasing <strong>the</strong><br />

NFIP’s annual losses and <strong>the</strong> need for borrowing. More importantly, <strong>the</strong>y drain resources<br />

needed to prepare for catastrophic events. The NFIP defines a repetitive loss property as “any<br />

insurable building for which two or more claims of more than $1,000 were paid by <strong>the</strong> NFIP<br />

within any rolling 10-year period, since 1978. At least two of <strong>the</strong> claims must be more than 10<br />

days apart.”<br />

History of Repetitive Loss<br />

Table 3.78 shows <strong>the</strong> number and location (by county and community) of repetitive loss and<br />

severe repetitive loss properties in <strong>the</strong> planning area. Johnson County has <strong>the</strong> most repetitive<br />

loss properties in <strong>the</strong> State of Kansas with 93.<br />
