(A) Nothing contained in this chapter is intended to be or shall be construed to create or form the basis for liability on the part of the city, its officers, employees, agents or the utility, for any injury or damage resulting from flooding or flood related events due to improperly sized drainage facilities or surface and storm events which exceed design capacities.
(B) Floods from surface and storm water runoff may occasionally occur which exceed the capacity of surface and storm water drainage facilities constructed and maintained under this chapter. The city's adoption of this chapter does not imply that property responsible for the surface and storm water drainage shall always be free from surface and storm water flooding or riverine floods. Further, this chapter does not purport to reduce the need or the necessity for any property owner/developer/applicant to obtain flood insurance.
