Flood Zoning Information

As a public service, the Town of Gulf Stream provides 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 Town. You can access your floodplain information here.
  • Additional flood insurance data, such as the FIRM Zone and the base flood elevation or depth, if shown on the FIRM of the Town.
  • The Town also has elevation certificates for many of the properties in Town. But if you should need a blank elevation certificate to have one executed for your home you can find it here.
  • The Town participates in the Community Rating system, a part of the National Flood Insurance Program, and some residents qualify for a 15% discount on their flood insurance rates. Please talk to your insurance agent.
