(A) No land shall be subdivided and no manufactured home park shall be developed or expanded where the site is determined to be unsuitable by the City Council for reason of flooding, inadequate drainage, water supply or sewage treatment facilities. The City Council shall review the subdivision/development proposal to ensure that each lot or parcel contains sufficient area outside of the floodway for fill placement for elevating structures, sewage systems and related activities.
(B) In the Flood Plain District, applicants for subdivision approval or development of a manufactured home park or manufactured home park expansion shall provide the information required in § 152.26(A). The Zoning Administrator shall evaluate the proposed subdivision or mobile home park development in accordance with the standards established in §§ 152.26(B) and (C) and 152.27.
(C) For all subdivisions in the flood plain, the floodway and flood fringe boundaries, the regulatory flood protection elevation and the required elevation of all access roads shall be clearly labeled on all required subdivision drawings and platting documents.
(D) The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has established criteria for removing the special flood hazard area designation for certain structures properly elevated on fill above the 100-year flood elevation. FEMA’s requirements incorporate specific fill compaction and side slope protection standards for multi-structure or multi-lot developments. These standards should be investigated prior to the initiation of site preparation if a change of special flood hazard area designation will be requested.
