Vermilion designates undeveloped flood plain land for non residential use such as parking and recreation to qualify for federal flood insurance. Property owners in the lagoons area pay reduced rates with coverage up to 35000 on homes and 10000 on contents. Officials note insurance demand surged after the announcement and builders watch Lake Erie's rising waters.
