Source: The Beaumont Enterprise, TexasSept.儲存 06--Most Jefferson County homeowners have only two months to challenge any errors in new federal maps that could significantly increase their flood insurance. That's not a lot of time, and most homeowners are not experts on this specialized issue.Officials with the country government and the local drainage districts are, however. They should be available to help county residents navigate this challenge. That's especially important because any appeal must be accompanied by data showing the maps to be "scientificall新蒲崗迷你倉 incorrect."The maps can be viewed at the county's engineering office at the courthouse or online at maps.riskmaps6.com/TX/JeffersonJefferson County Emergency Management Coordinator Greg Fountain said most of the changes on the map aren't drastic. That's reassuring.But if your flood insurance bill just doubled or tripled without good reason, it's a major problem for you.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 the Beaumont Enterprise (Beaumont, Texas) Visit the Beaumont Enterprise (Beaumont, Texas) at .beaumontenterprise.com Distributed by MCT Information Servicesmini storage
