(A) Board may recommend conditions. Upon consideration of the factors listed above and the purposes of this zoning code, the Board may recommend that the County Board may attach such conditions to the granting of special uses or variances as it deems necessary to further the purposes of this zoning code. Among such conditions, without limitation because of specific enumeration, may be included:
(1) Modification of waste disposal and water supply facilities.
(2) Limitations on periods of use and operation.
(3) Imposition of operational controls, sureties, and deed restrictions.
(4) Requirements for construction of channel modifications, dikes, levees and other protective measures.
(B) Flood proofing measures. Flood proofing measures such as the following shall be designed at or above a point two feet above the regulatory flood elevation for the particular area, flood velocities, durations, rate of rise, hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces, and other factors associated with the regulatory flood. The Board shall require that the application submit a plan or document certified by a registered professional engineer that the flood-proofing measures are at or above a point two feet above the regulatory flood elevation and associated flood factors for the particular area. The following flood proofing measures may be required without limitation because of specific enumeration.
(1) Anchorage to resist flotation and lateral movement or addition of mass or weight to structures to resist flotation.
(2) Installation of watertight doors, bulkheads, and shutters, or similar methods of construction.
(3) Reinforcement of walls to resist water pressures.
(4) Use paints, membranes, or mortars to reduce seepage of water through walls.
(5) Installation of pumps to lower water levels in structures.
(6) Construction of water supply and waste treatment systems so as to prevent the entrance of flood waters.
(7) Pumping facilities or comparable practices for subsurface drainage systems for buildings to relieve external foundation wall and basement flood pressures.
(8) Construction to resist rupture or collapse caused by water pressure or floating debris.
(9) Installation of valves or controls on sanitary and storm drains which will permit drains to be closed to prevent back up of sewage and storm waters into the buildings or structures. Gravity drainage of basements may be eliminated by mechanical devices.
(10) Location of all electrical equipment, circuits, and installed electrical appliances so as to provide protection from inundation by the regulatory flood.
(11) Location of any structural storage facilities for chemicals, explosives, buoyant materials, flammable liquids, or other toxic materials which could be hazardous to public safety and welfare at a point above the regulatory flood elevation or their flood proofing so as to prevent flotation of storage containers, or damage to these which would result in the escape of toxic materials into flood waters.
