FEMA issues updated DuPage County flood maps

Floodplain

Preliminary Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) have been issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency for the majority of DuPage County.

The maps, which bring additional properties into the regulatory floodplain, are now considered "best available information" by DuPage County for the purpose of reviewing floodplain permit applications. The process of finalizing and publishing the maps is expected to be completed in the fall of 2016. Mortgage companies and insurers at that time will also be required to use the maps.

The preliminary maps can be viewed at http://www.villageoflombard.org/DocumentCenter/View/15027. For further questions on the maps, contact Jana Bryant, Lombard’s private development engineer, at 630-620-5973 or bryantj@villageoflombard.org.

Lombard government offices are at 255 E. Wilson Ave., Lombard.
