How the Map Will Affect You
In the revised map, a larger portion of Fargo is included in the SFHA. Many properties will change categories from a low risk (Zone X, 500-year) into the high risk SFHA (Zone A). Property owners newly mapped into the SFHA may be required to purchase flood insurance. All federally backed/affiliated lender mortgages are required to carry flood insurance if the properties are located in the SFHA.
