Cheyenne County Flood Study Set for July 7

An Open House will be held 5 p.m.to 7 p.m. at the Cheyenne County Community Center, 627 Toledo St., Sidney, on July 7,

Cheyenne County is currently undergoing a FEMA mapping project to provide up-to- date flood risk information for the county. At the conclusion of this project, FEMA will issue new Flood Insurance

Rate Maps (FIRMs) with updated floodplain boundaries. These updated boundaries could affect flood insurance requirements for property owners.

Please join us at a Public Open House to speak with floodplain mapping and flood insurance experts from the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources. At the open house you will be able to learn

about specific flood risk and flood insurance information for your own property and ask questions about the flood study, mapping

process, and/or other floodplain management topics.
