City officials will be presenting information on the preliminary floodplain maps recently released by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The meetings will be focused on the impact of FEMA floodplain map changes in specific City Council districts. District 5, where we are located, is meeting on Monday, March 16th, 2015 at Fire Station #21 (2110 N. 135th St. West) at 6:30 PM. Additional community meetings will be held in May after affected property owners have been notified. FEMA and officials from the State of Kansas will be present at the May meetings to provide more information about how property owners may be impacted by the preliminary map changes. If you believe your home may be impacted, it is highly recommended that you attend. Additional information can be found on the Wichita.gov website:
