Floodplain Information

Every property is at risk of flooding. Insurance agents, lenders, builders, and other professionals use regulatory maps to determine the likelihood of a flood occurring on your property. This page provides links that help you see the maps they use, find out about flood insurance, and learn about updates to the maps.

The City is working in conjunction with Georgia Department of Natural Resources (GA DNR) and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to update the current flood maps. Preliminary Maps are expected July 2011. Open house meetings will be schedule for the public to view the maps. Their will be a 90-day comment period for the public to make appeals and protests to items shown on the maps. Final maps are expected to be adopted in July 2012. Please visit this site often as dates and information will update.
