Management Agency (FEMA), we are enclosing a copy of recent Letters of Map Amendment (LOMAs) and/or Letters of Map Revision (LOMRs) issued to amend or revise the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) map for your community. As you know, the repository is a local resource for information about the risks of flooding in your community. A FEMA priority is to ensure that
changes to the flood-risk information, such as those resulting from the issuance of a map amendment or revision, are sent to the repository for the benefit of the public. Please note
that NFIP regulations require that the repository attach the copy of the LOMA and/or LOMR to the appropriate NFIP map on file. FEMA appreciates your cooperation in maintaining this valuable
community resource. If you have any questions, or if the address of the repository for your community has changed, please contact me at the telephone number provided above. Sincerely,

Federal Emergency Management Agency Washington, D.C. 20472 MAR 251999 LETTER OF MAP REVISION BASED ON FILL 2l8-65-RS IN REPLY REFER TO CASE NO. 98-Q6-1948A Community: Town of Addison,
Texas Community No.: 481089 Map Panel Affected: City of Dallas 0030 D Map Effective Date: July 2, 1991 We reviewed a request dated September 17, 1998, for a Letter of Map Revision. All
required information for this request, including the required review and processing fee, was received on March 1, 1999. 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. Although this property is shown on the effective
NFIP map for the City of Dallas, it is now within an incorporated area known as the Town of Addison, a nonparticipating community in the NFIP. This property was elevated by the placement
of fill after the date of the earliest NFIP map showing the area in the SFHA. Property Description: Lot 2, The Woods, as shown on the Plat recorded in Volume 89085, Pages 4815 through
4822, in the Office of the County Clerk, Dallas County, Texas Street Address: Flooding Source: 14816 Winnwood Road White Rock Creek This letter revises the above-referenced NFIP map
to remove the structure from the SFHA. The structure is now in Zone C, an area of minimal flooding outside the SFHA. Flood insurance coverage for the structure may be available under
a low-cost policy (see enclosed document). 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. Although we based our determination on the flood data presently available, we are currently revising the NFIP map for
Dallas County, Texas and Incorporated Areas. New flood data could be generated that may affect this property. When the new NFIP map is issued, it will supersede this letter. The Federal
requirement for purchasing flood insurance then will be based on the newly issued NFIP map. This community is currently either suspended from or not participating in the NFIP; therefore,
flood insurance is not available. To learn if this community has been reinstated in or has joined the NFIP, thus making flood insurance available, please call 1-800-638-6620. The Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (Public Law 93-234) provides that lenders regulated by, or whose deposits are insured by, Federal instrumentalities may not make loans that originate
from or are secured, insured, or guaranteed by, a Federal government agency for improved real property or mobile homes located in an SFHA in a suspended or nonparticipating community.
Lenders may, however, make conventional loans secured by improved real property or mobile homes located in SFHAs, because the mandatory purchase of flood insurance requirement does not
apply to conventional loans. Such lenders must notify the purchaser or lessee of such property that the flood hazard exists and whether or not Federal disaster assistance will be available
to the property in the event of a flood disaster.

Study (FIS) Report for Dallas County, Texas and Incorporated Areas Dear Mr. Miller: Thank you for your letter dated July 30, 1999 regarding the updated FEMAIFIRM mapping program. The
Town of Addison is interested in participating in the FEMA program. The existing and proposed maps do not reflect the many changes that have occurred in the community over the last 25
years. Most of the streams are currently channelized and obviously the maps are in need of updating· to reflect this change. . In addition, the city limits and street names/patterns
have changed slightly. These changes are identified on the attached FIRM panels 180, 185, and 190. 190. Included for your reference is a copy of the Town's current street map and boundary
survey. I believe it would be beneficial to meet and discuss what the Town ofAddison needs to do to join the FEMA process and at the very least revise the maps to reflect the most accurate
information available. Please call me at 972/450-2871 ifyou have any questions or need additional information. Sincerely, John R. Baumgartner, P.E. Director of Public Works Attachments

Federal Emergency Management Agency Washington, D.C. 20472 The Honorable Richard N. Beckert Mayor, Town of Addison P.O. Box 9010 Addison, Texas 75001-9010 JUL 3.U 􀁾 \ Re: Preliminary
Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) and Flood InsUrance Study (PIS) Report for Dallas' County, Texas and Incorporated Areas Dear Mayor Beckert: We are pleased to present you with three copies
of the referenced preliminary FIRM and PIS report for your review and comment. We have prepared the FIRM and PIS report in our countywide format, which means that flood hazard information
for all jurisdictions within Dallas County, including your community, has been combined into one FIRM and PIS report. We have enclosed only those FIRM panels that actually cover your
community. We have provided complete sets of the FIRM panels to county officials under separate cover, and they should be available there for review by your community. As shown on the
enclosed FIRM panels, we have identified Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs) within the corporate limits of your community. Because your community is not participating in the National
Flood Insurance Program (NFIP), a representative 9f our Regional Office in Denton, Texas, will contact you to discuss the advantages of participation in the NFIP. We have prepared the
enclosed version of the FIRM directly from the effective FIRMs and Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps (FBFMs) for the county and incorporated areas using a process that involves capturing
data in a digital (computer-readable) format and plotting map panels using a specialized computer technology. In so doing, we have incorporated all essential information from the previously
effective FIRMs and FBFMS. In addition to preparing the PIRM and FIS report in our countywide format, we made other format revisions to the FIRM and PIS report. The specific revisions
are summarized in Section 10.0 of the FIS report. The corporate limits and roads shown on this FIRM were obtained from the North Central Texas Council of Governments. The Council has
indicated that these corporate limits have not been recently updated and may not be accurate. We received the corporate limits submitted by your community and will incorporate the changes
before final publication of the maps. If additional annexations or revisions have occurred since your last submission, please forward them with any other comments you have regarding
the map panels. To assist your community in maintaining the FIRM, we reviewed our records to determine if any previous Letters of Map Change (Le., Letters of Map Amendment, Letters of
Map Revision) will be superseded when the countywide FIRM becomes effective. According to our records, no Letters of Map Change were issued previously. Your community will have 30 days
from the date of this letter to review the enclosed copies of the FIRM and FIS report. The review period provides your community with an opportunity to correct and add non-technical
information, such as roads (within or adjacent to the Special Flood Hazard Areas), bridges, and streams, presented on the FIRM or in the FIS report. We will review all comments or changes
received during this 3Q-day review period and incorporate them, as appropriate, before the FIRM and FIS report become effective.
""-. 2Please be advised 1hat, at the end of the 30-day review pet;.iod, we will initiate a statutory 9O-day appeal period for another community within your county for which we added
or modified base flood elevations. Because the countywide FlRM must be processed for all communities concurrently, further action for your community will be postponed pending the completion
of the 90-day appeal period and resolution of all appeals. Approximately 2 weeks following the end of the 90-day appeal period, we will initiate final preparation of the FlRM and FlS
report. The new FlRM and FlS report for your community will become effective approximately 6 months later. Prior to the effective date, you will be notified 1hat you should adopt floodplain
ordinances or modify existing ordinances as necessary to reflect any changes in the FlRM or FIS report, including reference to the new map date. Approximately 3 weeks prior to the effective
date, we will send your community printed copies of the FlRM and FIS report. Please note 1hat once the F1RM and FlS report are printed and distributed, the digital files containing the
flood hazard data for the entire county can be provided to your community for use in a computer mapping system. These files can be used in conjunction with other thematic data for floodplain
management purposes, insurance purchase and rating requirements, and many other planning applications. Paper copies of the printed FIRM panels may be obtained by contacting our Map Service
Contractor at 1-800-358-9616. Copies of the digital files may be obtained by contacting our Technical Evaluation Contractor at (703) 960-8800. In addition, your community may be eligible
for additional credits under our Community Rating System if you implement your activities using digital mapping files. If you have any questions regarding the necessary floodplain management
measures for your community or the NFIP in general, we urge you to contact the Director, Mitigation Division of the Federal Emergency Managemen! Agency in Denton, Texas, at (817) 898-5127.
If you have any questions concerning the preliminary FlRM and FIS report, or mapping· issues in general, please contact Mr. Mike Grimm of our staff in Washington, DC, either by telephone
at (202)646-2878 or by facsimile at (202) 646-4596. Sincerely, 􀀬􀁜􀁾􀁾􀀮􀀬􀁜􀁾 Matthew B. Miller, P.E., Chief Hazards Study Branch Mitigation Directorate Enclosures
