FEMA in process of updating Flood Maps which will allow the lower floor(currently non-living area) to be legally finished and converted to living area because BFE is changing from 12' to 9' and lower floor is 10.4' per elevation certificate. This means the bottom floor will be ABOVE the FEMA required minimum base flood elevation once FEMA finalizes the maps which is expected soon.
