Sandy Springs city officials have set two dates for residents to review how new flood rate insurance maps will affect them.
The public is invited to attend meetings on Nov. 9 and Dec. 7, both from 6 to 8 p.m. The meetings will be held at the Sandy Springs City Council chambers, 7840 Roswell Road, Building 500.
Representatives from the City of Sandy Springs, Georgia Department of Natural Resources and FEMA will be available at the meetings to help answer questions, city officials said.
“The new flood maps will show (on a property by property basis) the extent to which parcels are currently at risk for flooding, taking into account changes in topography, land use and drainage patterns,” the city said via press release. ” If the risk level for a property changes, flood insurance and building requirements change as well.”
