When any portion of a lot or parcel of land contains an area of special flood hazard, the owner of the property and/or the general contractor shall provide to the city inspector a completed federal emergency management agency elevation certificate on all buildings constructed at the time of the finished floor inspection. Delivery of the certificate to the city manager shall be a warranty by the property owner and by the general contractor that the information contained within the certificate is accurate. City employees may use the information contained within the certificate unless they have affirmative knowledge that this information is inaccurate. The certificate shall be a public document. Any building which is remodeled to a point in excess of twenty five percent (25%) of the fair market value shall be considered new construction for purposes of compliance in the supplying of FEMA elevation certificates.
