Coconino County officials say updated digital flood hazard maps for Coconino County, Yavapai County, and sections of Oak Creek are available for public review and comment. The maps, known as Flood Insurance Rate Maps, show the extent to which areas recently re-mapped in Oak Creek and its tributaries are at risk for flooding. This covers the area from Sterling Canyon in Coconino County, through Sedona down to Cornville. Used to help determine flood insurance and building requirements, the new flood maps replace maps that were based on studies more than 30 years old. County officials will host an online virtual flood risk open house tomorrow from 6:30-to-8. Information about the open house can be found below:
