DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AGENCY Proposed Flood Hazard Determinations for Unincorporated Areas of Collin County, Texas, Case No. 26-06-0934P. The Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) solicits technical information or comments on proposed flood hazard determinations for the Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM), and where applicable, the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report for your community. These flood hazard determinations may include the addition or modification of Base Flood Elevations, base flood depths, Special Flood Hazard Area boundaries or zone designations, or the regulatory floodway. The FIRM and, if applicable, the FIS report have been revised to reflect these flood hazard determinations through issuance of a Letter of Map Revision (LOMR), in accordance with Title 44, Part 65 of the Code of Federal Regulations. These determinations are the basis for the floodplain management measures that your community is required to adopt or show evidence of having in effect to qualify or remain qualified for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. For more information on the proposed flood hazard determinations and information on the statutory 90-day period provided for appeals, please visit FEMA’s website at https://www.floodmaps.fema.gov/fhm/BFE_Status/bfe_main.asp, or call the FEMA Mapping and Insurance eXchange (FMIX) toll free at 1-877-FEMA MAP (1-877-336-2627). 8/18, 8/25 NOTICE OF DESIGNATION OF ADDITIONAL MEETING PLACES OUTSIDE THE DISTRICT TO THE RESIDENTS AND TAXPAYERS OF RAINTREE MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 1 OF COLLIN COUNTY AND ALL OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS: Notice is hereby given that the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Raintree Municipal Utility District No. 1 of Collin County (the “District”), at a meeting of said Board held on August 10, 2026, established an additional meeting place outside the boundaries of the District at 6221 Southwest Boulevard, Benbrook, Texas 76132.
