The flood protection standards in this chapter are based on engineering experience and scientific research. Larger floods may occur or the flood height may be increased by human-made or natural causes. This chapter does not imply or guarantee that non floodplain areas or permitted floodplain uses will be free from flooding and flood damages. Nor does this chapter create liability on the part of, or a cause of action against, the municipality or any officer or employee thereof for any flood damage that may result from reliance on this chapter.
