FEMA will hold a free virtual open house Tuesday, Sept. 1, from 2 to 4 p.m. for Muskegon County residents.
Residents can log on to Zoom to check their address on new preliminary flood maps and meet one-on-one with FEMA experts to discuss property risks.
The event comes after flooding this past spring forced a local emergency declaration in Muskegon County.
Officials warn most home and renter's insurance does not cover flood damage. More than 40% of flood insurance claims come from outside high-risk zones.
Preiminary versions of the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report and the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) can be found here [u7061146.ct.sendgrid.net].
