PETTIS COUNTY FLOODPLAIN PROGRAM

 

Pettis County joined the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) May 1, 1994. The ordinance covering all the rules, regulations and penalties is ordinance 2-99 #284. A copy of this ordinance can be obtained at the Pettis County Clerk's Office.

The Legislature of the State of Missouri has it in the Missouri Revised Statutes, that Section 49.600 delegates the responsibilities to local government units to adopt flood plain management regulations designed to protect the health, safety and general welfare.
