No, it is listed but not participating. Newport appears in the FEMA Community Status Book as Newport, town of, community 100054, with no Community Rating System class, so no CRS discount applies. Whether a specific parcel sits in a mapped special flood hazard area is an address level question the platform answers.

No, and they are labeled so.

They appear in one clearly marked section as context and are never presented as measurements of Newport.
Is zoning published for Newport?
No. Nothing on this page presents parcel level zoning.
