Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes December 14, 2021 with the State, is the FRIS system that we have talked about and some of you have used to do research. The other one, which was really the sticking point on our review with ISO, is on page 19. That is the one talking about the electrical, heating and ventilation. The mechanical must be elevated, and that is elevated to the Regulatory Flood Protection, which is BFE (Based Flood Elevation) plus two. If they cannot put it at BFE plus two, it has to be specifically designed to withstand flooding, not to the BFE, but to that Regulatory Flood Protection again, so to BFE plus two. The ISO says, this supposedly gets us to a seven, but then they also asked if we were still doing some of the things from the last review, which is outside of the scope of our last review. We will see if we get a seven or if we stay at an eight. Ms. Morris said those are the only changes to the Ordinance. If the Board remembers, back in the summer, we updated to 160D and to the Model Ordinance that they had at that time. The other changes were typos that we found. Chapter 1, Section 1-5, to correct the date from February 2, 1982 to February 1, 1982. The minutes from the meeting are specific that that is the date that we need to use. Chapter 5, Section 5-7, Section B. Stream buffer and floodplain limitations, when we changed the flood plain ordinance from Chapter 15 to 16 that did not get captured in the update of the text. Those are the amendments that she has. We went through and did the bulk of those changes that we needed to do with 160D. This is just some cleanup work, specifically related to us participating in the CRS Program. Mr. Corley asked if the commercial storage facility item was allowed in the flood plain area before by definition? Ms. Morris thinks it was not clear. We have had cases where people are storing cars in the flood plain. She thinks it is now interpreted to mean you cannot store cars, trucks, and other things in the floodplain if it is related to commercial. That it is specifically treated as a commercial use and would have to be permitted or elevated, even storage buildings related to that. The Chair said we need to discuss the text amendments and build the record to recommend approval of the text amendments to the Board of Commissioners. Mr. Paxton said it appears pretty cut and dry, typos are pretty common. The other is something that needs to be done and is a legal statute and we should follow in line. 7
