What is the schedule for the new maps and mitigation measures?

The new FEMA maps will go into effect sometime in 2024, but the exact date is not yet known.  The city is still waiting to hear if any grants were awarded for flood mitigation.  If awarded, the grant(s) will be managed by the City DPW, and it is expected to take 18 months for design, permitting, and procurement activities, followed by another 18 to 24 months of construction.  We anticipate another 6 months to apply for and receive a LOMR.
