Environmental / Land Use Division
The Environmental / Land Use section includes water wells, on-site wastewater, floodplain, zoning and sign regulation in unincorporated Sedgwick County. MABCD extends services to Clearwater, Garden Plain, Kechi, Maize, and Park City for water wells and on-site wastewater.
Floodplain
Flood zones = Risk. What this means to you is that even if your property does not flood, you may have the additional cost of flood insurance if your structure is in a flood zone.
- Is my property in the Floodplain? (By address search.)
- What if my property is in the floodplain?
- You may not need flood insurance if your structures are not located in the floodplain even though your property is partially in the floodplain.
FEMA
- You may not need flood insurance if your structures are not located in the floodplain even though your property is partially in the floodplain.
Signs
Sign regulation encourages the effective use of signs as a means of communication, maintain aesthetics in the community, improve pedestrian and vehicular safety, eliminate excessive and confusing signage.
- Sedgwick County Sign Code.
- Sign Permit Application
