Flooding

Midland Park's mapped flood hazards follow Goffle Brook and a Goffle Brook tributary. FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer shows these streams in the borough, and its flood hazard zones layer shows a limited Special Flood Hazard Area (Zone AE, including regulatory floodway) inside borough limits. Zone AE is FEMA's 1% annual-chance (100-year) flood zone, and homes in high-risk zones with mortgages from federally regulated or insured lenders must carry flood insurance (summarized on a neighboring Bergen County borough's flood page). To check a specific address, search it on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center.

Permits in Midland Park

Building, plumbing and electrical permits come from the Borough of Midland Park construction office. Your contractor normally pulls the permit, but it's worth confirming.
