The areas in Camden County that are most affected by these revised maps include portions of the Big Niangua, Little Niangua and Linn Creek. FEMA has provided community officials and citizens an opportunity to appeal the proposed flood hazard information.

There is a 90-day appeal period which will follow FEMA’s second publication in local papers on March 9. If a property owner or lessee of real property believes the proposed flood hazard determinations adversely affect their property rights, that person may appeal to their proper Floodplain Administrator or directly to FEMA.

Affected citizens whose property is in the unincorporated portion of Camden County may contact Kimberly Willey, CFM. Willey is the Floodplain Administrator for Camden County as well as the Planning & Zoning Administrator.

Her office is on the 3rd Floor of the Administrative Courthouse.  The phone number is 573-317-3860, or email her. The proposed revised maps are viewable in the Planning & Zoning Department’s Main Office.
