Federal Emergency Management Agency Washington, D.C. 20472 JAN 27 1998 I- _nr~ ~ Colorado Springs, Colorado 80918 IN REPLY REFER TO CASE NO. 98-08-093A Community: City of Colorado Springs, Colorado Community No.: 080060 Map Panel Affected: 08041C0516 F Map Effective Date: March 17, 1997 218-70-0S Dear We reviewed your request dated December 3, 1997, for a Letter of Map Amendment. All required information for this request was received on January 6, 1998. Using the information submitted and the effective National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map, we determined portions of the property described below are in a Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA), the area that would be inundated by the flood having a I-percent chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year (base flood); however, the structure on the property is not in the SFHA. Property Description: Lot 12, Block 1, Quail Meadows Filing No.2, as shown on the Plat recorded in Book G3, Page 57, in the Office of the Recorder, El Paso County, Colorado Street Address: 6810 Snowbird Drive Flooding Source: Cottonwood Creek The structure is correctly shown outside the SFHA on the above-referenced NFIP map. The structure is in Zone X (unshaded), an area of minimal flooding outside the SFHA. Because portions of the property remain in the SFHA, any future construction or substantial improvement on the property remains subject to Federal, State, and local regulations for floodplain management. The enclosed document provides additional information about Letters of Map Amendment. If you have any questions about this letter, please contact Ms. Agnes De Coca of our staff in Washington, DC, either by telephone at (202) 646-2746 or by facsimile at (202) 646-4596. Sincerely, ~~~cr Frederick H. Sharrocks, Jr., Chief Hazard Identification Branch Mitigation Directorate Enclosure
