Property Search Functionality
Searching for properties have been simplified. Locating
a property is a two-step process.
Step 1: Select the County where theproperty is located,
from the dropdown list in the LAYERS tab.
Step 2: Enter a street name (without suffix) or Tax Map Key
(TMK) number in the PROPERTY SEARCH tab.

If searching by address, users should select the desired
street from the dropdown list, and hit the GO button.
 A separate pop up window will appear with specific addresses along
the selected street. After locating the desired address, click on
the corresponding TMK. The map viewer will refresh to the property
of interest. A report of the search can be printed by clicking
on the REPORT toolbox button located above the map viewer.

Letter of Map Changes (LOMC)
 Another important feature that was
added to the FHAT, was the inclusion of
the effective Letter of Map Changes.
A Letter of Map Change (LOMC) is a
general term used to refer to the several
types of revisions and amendments to
FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Maps. They
include Letter of Map Amendment
(LOMA), Letter of Map Revision (LOMR),
and Letter of Map Revision based on Fill
(LOMR-F).
To view the location of a specific LOMC
or download a copy of the official map
revision, users should select the County
of interest in the LETTER OF MAP CHANGE tab. A pop-up window will
 appear which list all effective letter of LOMCs for that particular county.
Various fields are shown on the table to help the user determine which
LOMC is of particular interest.
By clicking onto the ZOOM button, the map will refresh to the affected
location and shown as a cross-hatched area. To obtain the official copy
of the map revision, select the DOWNLOAD button from the LOMC popup
window or click on the LOMC toolbox button and select the crossed
hatched area from the map.
Also included in the LOMC menu are links to FEMA's
"Status of Map Change Revisions" and "BFE Notices"
(Base Flood Elevation) webpages.
