Both Monroe County and the City of Key West have posted the draft FEMA flood maps on their websites. These maps don’t show an additional difference in elevation due to a change in mapping standards between the old and new proposed flood maps, known as datum. In Key West this amount is -1.342 feet, but the amount is different throughout the County. Contact your local floodplain manager to learn how this impacts you.
