Still don't understand what "grandfathered into sth" mean
I want to know the meaning of this exact phrase: to be grandfathered into sth" as in this sentence: "As long as homeowners follow the existing maps last revised in 1984 *they'll be grandfathered into the federal flood insurance program."* Can someone gloss that last part of the sentence?
