Boulder County, Colo. - Boulder
County Transportation and the State of Colorado are hosting a series of public
meetings to present draft floodplain maps for major stream corridors in unincorporated
county from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Colorado
Hazard Mapping Program (CHAMP).

These sessions
are an opportunity for the public to review draft updated map information for locations
in unincorporated Boulder County as listed for each meeting below. Locations
outside of the defined map review areas for each meeting will not be discussed.
Additional public meetings will be scheduled as map updates are received.

Public Map
Review Sessions for Specific Waterways

Residents
along these stream reaches and other interested parties are invited to attend
an open house map review session and a public presentation led by state and
county staff at each meeting. A presentation will be followed by a question and
answer session and an opportunity for attendees to explore maps and provide
feedback directly to project team members. Boulder County wants the draft maps to
accurately reflect local flood risk, which is why residents living along these
creeks are encouraged to be involved and provide input at this stage. Comments
gathered will be evaluated and provided to the state team for their
consideration during their next round of revisions, floodplain modeling, and
mapping.
