Public meeting are scheduled to in the six Toledo council districts to present the new preliminary flood maps and discuss these changes.  It is important for homeowners to attend one of these if they think they might be in the new 100 year flood map areas because they will be required to carry FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) flood insurance if they have a mortgage on their homes.  But, homeowners may be able to successfully challenge being in the flood-hazard map area or be able to purchase the insurance now at a much reduced rate.  The meetings all start at 6:00 PM.
