Stimulus offers floodplain assist

Jefferson County Daily Union

...Homeowners and property owners should be aware that - in the wake of 2008's record-breaking floods - land that was never mapped as floodplain might now be in the flood hazard areas. The mapping designations could affect selling or buying a home or refinancing a mortgage, as well as placing a property under federal, state and local floodplain regulations and restrictions.

...Any questions about the new maps can be directed to the Jefferson County Zoning Department at (920) 674-7113 or (920) 674-8638.
