Floodplain Management
Floodplain management involves use of policies and floodplain regulations to protect the health and safety of citizens and reduce the risk of property damage in flood-prone areas. The effort also includes providing the public with information and promoting awareness of flooding hazards and ensuring compliance with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requirements.
FEMA has updated the floodplain mapping for Weld County as of January 20, 2016. These updates can be viewed on the Weld County Property Portal: https://www.co.weld.co.us/maps/propertyportal/
