   C.   Constructed by methods and practices that minimize flood damage, and
   D.   Constructed with electrical, heating, ventilation, plumbing, and air conditioning equipment and other service facilities that are designed and/or located so as to prevent water from entering or accumulating within the components during conditions of flooding.
   E.   Buildings shall maintain the proper foundation, garage, and building elevation of subsections 1000.9C and D of this ordinance. (Ord. 2011-007, 7-5-2011)
