National Flood Insurance Program The City of San Leandro has participated in the National Flood Insurance Program (NIFP) since 1974. The City also participates in the Community Rating System (CRS) and is currently class 8. The City first joined NIFP on June 7, 1974. Since that time there have been no changes in the City's approved plan. The City has participated in the CRS and is a CRS member. Alameda County Flood Control data and maps are used to regulate flood hazard areas along with FEMA maps. There has been reluctance on the part of individual property owners to participate in the program, and individual property owners remain the general hurdle for effective implementation of the NFIP. The City of San Leandro has no structures which have required flood proofing, nor does is permit construction within a floodway. Most zones in San Leandro are rated "A ", in which structures or plots are located above the base flood elevation in accordance with NFIP guidelines.
