The planning commission shall review the particular circumstances and facts of each proposed use in terms of the following standards as well as those in § 153.33:
(A) Structures shall not be designed for human habitation and shall have a low flood-damage potential;
(B) Structures, if permitted, shall be constructed and placed on the building site so as to offer the minimum obstruction to the flow of the flood waters and whenever possible, shall be constructed with the longer of the 2 axes parallel to the direction of flood flow to minimize flow resistance;
(C) No special-use permit shall be issued for the development of new structures, substantial improvement or relocation of old structures, or development of any kind within the floodway when such development, construction, improvement, or relocation would cause any increase in flood level associated with the base flood.
