DENTON, Texas – New preliminary flood maps for residents of Johnson County are ready for residents to review. Communities affected by the maps include Clarksville, Coal Hill, Hartman, and unincorporated areas of Johnson County.
These maps help homeowners and businesses decide about purchasing flood insurance. By knowing their risks, individuals and community leaders can make informed decisions about building and development.
“This critical information is the result of coordination between FEMA and our state and local partners. We hope that everyone reviews the maps to understand the flood risks involved,” said FEMA Region 6 Administrator Tony Robinson. “It is very important for the community to be an active partner in the flood mapping process.”
To see the revised flood maps, please contact your local floodplain administrator. He or she may be located at City Hall or the local county government building. You can also visit the Map Service Center at http://msc.fema.gov/portal.
