Tulsa City and County Floodplain Maps

The city of Tulsa has a number of flood resources on their website from flood safety to flood history to flood insurance.  They provide their widely requested Regulatory Floodplain Map Atlas on their site as well. 

We carry the paper version of this map and keep it back historically.

Another publication we carry in paper is the Tulsa Public Works Department's "City of Tulsa:  A General Guide to Regulatory Floodplains."  The city mentions this in their Flood Insurance site and we keep both current and historical releases of this title.

Other 2017 city pamphlets we have copies of include:

  • 2017 Repetitive Loss Area Notice
  • Flood Hazard Information About Your Property
  • Flood Risk in Tulsa:  Are You Prepared?
  • Flood Risk in West Tulsa

On the county level, INCOG includes access on their site to the Tulsa County Floodplain Map.
