**Rescheduled Meeting from September due to Hurricane Irma**
Do you live on the barrier islands or Merritt Island?
FEMA is revising their Flood Insurance Study and Flood Insurance Rate Map for these areas.
FEMA completed their restudy for coastal Brevard County and released preliminary maps. New storm surge modeling will result in changes to flood zone areas on the barrier islands and Merritt Island. Some areas will have revised flood elevations, which will impact annual flood insurance premiums, both positively and negatively. Some areas, not currently in flood zones (Special Flood Hazard Areas), will change and be included, which will then require mandatory flood insurance for a mortgage.
If your home or business is in or near a flood zone, then find out whether your property is impacted, how a change may affect you, how securing flood insurance coverage before a change can save you money, and how to appeal a change either before or after the fact.
