(KMZA)--An open house meeting on ongoing work to update floodplain maps in Nemaha County will be held Tuesday ( March 10) in Seneca.
Seneca City Administrator Matt Rehder said the open house will take place from 2 to 7 pm in the meeting room at the Seneca Public Library. Rehder said at the open house the public---primarily landowners—will be able to meet with state and federal officials and provide input on the proposed new floodplain maps.
Floodplain maps are used to determine where flood insurance is needed and rate it cost. They also provide the basis for executing community floodplain management ordinances and planning decisions.
Work on the updated maps has been underway for more than a year.
Preliminary maps are expected to be issued around July of this year, with the maps likely becoming effective in the fall of 2021.
