The floodplain area of the town is hereby classified and divided into three districts, designated as follows.
(A) Floodplain (FP) District. The purpose of the FP District is to guide development in flood hazard areas in which a commission floodway has not been established.
(B) Floodway (FW) District. The purpose of the FW District is to delineate the area established by Natural Resources as a commission floodway. Natural Resources exercises primary jurisdiction within the Floodway District under the provisions of state law. The Town Council may place terms and conditions on any permit it issues in the Floodway District which are more restrictive than those imposed by Natural Resources.
(C) Floodway Fringe (FF) District. The purpose of the FF District is to regulate land use in the flood hazard area outside the floodway. The Floodway Fringe FF District may stand by itself or be combined with any district which the Council deems appropriate.
