The 2020 FEMA maps have been authorized and adopted by Medina County. The Medina County Environmental Health Department will no longer accept the non digitized maps with any OSSF or Floodplain applications. Paper maps are no longer available; FEMA issues them on a disk. If you cannot purchase the CD’s from FEMA, there is a free FEMA website that has the maps available on line. On May 15, 2020 the maps will be effective and the old maps will no longer be accepted. Click the web link and follow the steps below to print your Flood Plain Map. www.msc.fema.gov/portal.
