  • Located within the flood plain district are areas designated as one-hundred-year flood areas (Zone A) where base flood elevations and flood hazard factors have not been determined. Within these areas the following provision shall apply: Within Zone A, where the base flood elevation is not provided on the city's Flood Insurance Rate Map, the applicant shall obtain any existing base flood elevation data and it shall be reviewed by the city engineer for its reasonable utilization toward meeting the elevation or floodproofing requirements, as appropriate, of the state building code. Further, the Wetlands Protection Act may require engineering studies to be performed in order to determine base flood elevations in unnumbered A zones
