Towns in Bonneville County: Idaho Falls, Ammon, Lincoln.
Flood zone by address
ParcelSheet reads FEMA's National Flood Hazard Layer at the lot: the zone, whether it is a high risk area where lenders ask for flood insurance, and the base flood elevation where FEMA lists one. FEMA has 23 FIRM panels covering Bonneville County, the newest effective June 2026; no coastal V zones are mapped in it.
The official panel and any Letter of Map Amendment are at FEMA's Map Service Center. An elevation certificate for a Bonneville house comes from a licensed surveyor and is often on file with the county or city building office.
Property lines
The parcel outline, parcel number and mapped size come from the State of Idaho public parcels, from counties that share them, so a Bonneville lot shows the same lines the county assessor draws. Bonneville County covers about 1,194,215 acres of land and 21,971 acres of water.
Mapped lines are approximate. The Bonneville County assessor keeps the parcel record (Bonneville County website); a licensed surveyor sets the true corners.
Zoning
Bonneville County zones its unincorporated land, and Idaho Falls, Ammon each zone the land inside their limits. ParcelSheet shows the use the county assessor lists for the lot and links the county planning and zoning office for the district, the uses it allows and the lot size it needs.
ADU and guest houses
Under Idaho's Local Land Use Planning Act (Idaho Code Title 67, Chapter 65), local governments can allow an accessory dwelling unit on a lot with a house. Whether a Bonneville lot can add one depends on its district; the county planning and zoning office has the rule. ParcelSheet shows the mapped lot size and the ground's slope, the first two things the question turns on.
Septic and soil
ParcelSheet reads the USDA soil survey at the lot: the soil's name, its septic absorption rating and whether it is prime farmland. Bonneville County is soil survey area ID769, Bonneville County Area, Idaho, last updated August 2026, on Web Soil Survey.
A new or changed septic system in Bonneville County needs a permit from the public health district that serves Bonneville County (under Idaho Department of Environmental Quality rules).
