A multiyear project by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to re-examine flood risks throughout Hennepin County and develop electronic flood hazard maps has been completed,
resulting in new flood plain maps.
Based on these maps, the principle structure located at your property in Orono appears to be located in, or is located adjacent to the Special Flood Hazard Area (aka SFHA, the 1-percent,
or 100-year floodplain). Your lender may require flood insurance.
If you believe your structure is higher than the actual flood elevation, there is a procedure for appeals known as a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA). Traditionally, a LOMA involves hiring
a surveyor to verify the lowest ground touching the structure, deck or stairs is above the 100-year flood elevation, but there are other options.
More information on the process for submitting a LOMA is available from the MN Department of Natural Resources at http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/waters/watermgmt_section/floodplain/map_appeals.html
Please contact the Orono City Hall at 952-249-4600 for more information.
