Honest scope

This page lists verified public Elevation Certificate (EC) portals we have indexed for Michigan. It is not a national address→EC database. We do not invent whether a certificate is on file for a property, and we do not invent FEMA CRS classes or discount percentages. For CRS participation, use FEMA’s official eligible-communities materials.

National index snapshot: 120 portals across 17 states. This page covers Michigan only.

From search to next step

How to request an Elevation Certificate in Michigan

  1. Search the matching city or county portal below (address, parcel, or map tools vary by site).
  2. If no public portal matches your community, email or call the local floodplain administrator using our request-path contacts where listed, or your community’s building/floodplain office.
  3. Confirm flood zone and Base Flood Elevation context on FEMA’s Map Service Center before relying on any certificate for insurance decisions.
  4. Prefer the most recent FEMA Elevation Certificate form year your insurer accepts.

Ann Arbor, MI — Elevation Certificates

Ann Arbor · MI · ArcGIS Web App · verified 2026-11-06

Public portal

Open Ann Arbor's floodplain map (ArcGIS), search your address, and click the parcel or EC marker. The City says all ECs and Letters of Map Change it has received are on this map. City limits only; surrounding townships keep their own records.

Midland, MI — Elevation Certificates

Midland · MI · PDF index · verified 2026-11-06

Public portal

Open the City of Midland list of addresses with Elevation Certificates on file and search it for your street address (Ctrl+F). The list shows that a certificate is on file; to get a copy, contact the City of Midland floodplain or building office. An address missing from the list does not prove no EC exists.
