The areas of special flood hazard identified by FEMA in a scientific and engineering report entitled "The Flood Insurance Study (FIS) for the city dated March 30, 1982," with accompanying Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) and Flood Boundary and Floodway Maps (FBFMs) revised March 19, 1990, and all subsequent amendments and/or revisions, are hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this Article. This FIS and attendant mapping is the minimum area of applicability of this Article and may be supplemented by studies for other areas which allow implementation of this Article and which are recommended to the Floodplain Board by the Floodplain Administrator. The Floodplain Board shall delineate (or may, by rule, require developers of land to delineate) for areas where development is ongoing or imminent, and thereafter as development becomes imminent, floodplains consistent with the criteria developed by FEMA and the Director of ADWR. The FIS and FIRM panels are on file at the Department of Public Works at 575 E. Baseline Avenue, Apache Junction, Arizona, or any other location deemed by the City Manager as an appropriate filing location in the event the public works yard is moved.
