Flood Maps
North Carolina is planning to adopt new flood plain maps in 2018. If your home is in or adjacent to a flood plain there is a possibility that the change in flood maps could affect flood insurance premiums. If you would like additional information on how these changes may affect your property please feel free to stop by Town Hall.
