Flood Zone: This property is located in a designated FEMA Flood Zone A. Buildable, but construction must adhere to local floodplain ordinances. The development process requires an initial land survey to establish elevation, a Floodplain Development Permit from the Covington County EMA, and a final Elevation Certificate for inspections and insurance. Flood insurance is required for mortgaged purchases. Homes should be designed on an elevated foundation with standard flood vents.
