Government>GIS Mapping Information>FEMA>FEMA_LocalMaps Community MapsA collection of maps have been developed to help identify parcels impacted by the initially proposed changes within each community. These maps highlight parcels which appear to be impacted by the mapped areas of the zone A; however, the maps do not include information necessary to determine if individual structures are within a specific flood hazard area. To determine the classification of the flood zone which includes your structure; visit your local community offices to review the associated map panels. In some cases, a professional surveyor may be required to supply an elevation certificate for each structure.
Click on the respective community name to view our generalized parcel map. The individual map link is followed by the affiliated partnership classification for the community and the exsisting map year of publication. To learn how the affiliated partnership affects your insurance rate, see the text following the map list.

Participating Community - A community for which the Mitigation Division Administrator has authorized the sale of flood insurance under the NFIP. Not Participating Community - Flood insurance under the NFIP is not available within that community. Furthermore, Section 202(a) of Public Law 93-234, as amended, prohibits Federal officers or agencies from approving any form of financial assistance for acquisition or construction purposes in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). For example, this would prohibit loans guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs, insured by the Federal Housing Administration, or secured by the Rural Housing Services. Under Section 202(b) of Public Law 93-234, if a Presidentially declared disaster occurs as a result of flooding in a non-participating community, no Federal financial assistance can be provided for the permanent repair or reconstruction of insurable buildings in SFHAs. Eligible applicants may receive those forms of disaster assistance that are not related to permanent repair and reconstruction of buildings. If the community applies and is accepted into the NFIP within 6 months of a Presidential disaster declaration, these limitations on Federal disaster assistance are lifted. Probation Surcharge (Premium) - A flat charge that the policyholder must pay on each new or renewal policy issued covering property in a community that the NFIP has placed on probation under the provisions of 44 CFR 59.24. After a period of one year, the community will be considered as not participating. Community Rating System (CRS) - A voluntary incentive program that recognizes and encourages community floodplain management activities that exceed the minimum NFIP requirements. As a result, flood insurance premium rates are discounted to reflect the reduced flood risk resulting from the community actions
