NOTICE TO: Montpelier Residents
SUBJECT: Flood Insurance Rate Map Zone Information

As a public service, the City of Montpelier will provide you with the following information upon request:
  • Whether a property is in or out of the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) as shown on the current Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) of the City.
  • Additional flood insurance data for a site, such as the FIRM zone and the base flood elevation or depth, if shown on the FIRM,
  • We have a handout on the flood insurance purchase requirement that can help people who need a mortgage or loan for a property in the SFHA.
  • We have copies of completed FEMA Elevation Certificates for buildings built in the floodplain since 1991.
If you would like to make an inquiry, please tell us the street address of your property. We are open 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday - Friday. Call us at (802) 223-9506 or drop by the Department of Planning & Community Development in City Hall. Anyone in the office can provide the needed information. There is no charge for this service.

2007 FEMA 100-year Flood Zone Map:
This map shows an overlay of the existing (1992) and proposed 100-year flood zones in Montpelier.
  • The yellow areas indicate land that was in the 100-year flood zone but is no longer.
  • The orange areas indicate land that was in the 100-year flood zone and still remain in that zone.
  • The red areas indicate land that wasn't designated 1992, but is now believed to be in the 100-year flood zone.
