Prior to the issuance of any building permit, the Planning Administrator shall:
(A) Review all building permit applications to determine full compliance with the provisions of this subchapter.
(B) Review all building permit applications for new construction or substantial improvements to determine whether proposed building sites will be reasonably safe from flooding.
(C) Review building permit applications for major repairs within the flood plain area having special flood hazards to determine that the proposed repair:
(1) Uses construction materials and utility equipment that are resistant to flood damage; and
(2) Uses construction methods and practices that will minimize flood damage.
(D) Review building permit applications for new construction or substantial improvements within the flood plain area having special flood hazards to assure that the proposed construction (including manufactured homes) is protected from flood damage, is designed, modified, and anchored to prevent flotation, collapse, or lateral movement of the structures, and uses construction methods and practices that will minimize flood damage.
