b.)
The elevated portion ofthe building and supporting foundation system shall not be subject to
collapse, displacement, or other structural damage due to the effects ofwind and water loads
acting simultaneously on all building components (structural and nonstructural). Maximum wind
and water loading values to be used in this determination shall each have a one percent chance of
being equaled or exceeded in any give year.
(6) Ifbreakaway walls are utilized, such enclosed space shall be useable solely for parking ofvehicles,
building access, or storage. Such space shall not be used for human habitation.
(7) Prohibit the use offill for structural support ofbuildings. Under the building, no fill may be used except
for minor landscaping and minor site grading for drainage purposes. Fill may be used on coastal building
sites for landscaping and site grading as long as the fill does not interfere with the free passage of
floodwaters and debris underneath the building or cause changes in flow direction during coastal storms
such that will cause additional damage to buildings on the site or to any adjacent buildings.
(8) Prohibit man-made alteration ofsand dunes that would increase potential flood damage. An example of
unacceptable placement offill would be construction ofa small berm or retaining wall that is backfilled and
used for landscaping purposes when it has been determined that ramping or deflection offloodwaters will
adversely affect adjacent buildings and thereby create additional flood damage potential.
(9) All manufactured homes to be placed or substantially improved within Coastal AE Zones, Zones VI - V30,
V, and VE on the community'S FIRM on sites:
a.)
b.)
c.)
d.)
Outside ofa manufactured home park or subdivision,
In a new manufactured home park or subdivision,
In an expansion to an existing manufactured home park or subdivision, or
In an existing manufactured home park or subdivision on which a manufactured home has
incurred "substantial damage" as the result ofa flood;
shall meet the standards ofthis Article 5, Section G (1) through (8) and that manufactured homes placed or
substantially improved on other sites in an existing manufactured home park or subdivision with Coastal
AE Zones, Zones VI - V30, V, and VE on the FIRM meet the requirements ofArticle 5, Section B (7) (a)
through (b).
(10) Recreational vehicles placed on sites within Coastal AE Zones, Zones VI - V30, V, and VE on the
community's FIRM either;
a.)
b.)
Be on the site for fewer than 180 consecutive days,
Be fully licensed and ready for highway use, on its wheels or jacking system, is attached to the site
only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices, and has no permanently attached
additions; or
c.) Meet the requirements ofArticle 4, Section B and Article 5, Section B, (7) and this Section G.
SECTION H.
CRITICAL FACILITIES.
Construction ofnew or substantially improved critical facilities shall be, to the maximum extent possible, located
outside the limits ofthe special flood hazard area (SFHA) (100~year floodplain). Construction ofnew critical
facilities shall be permissible within the SFHA ifno feasible alternative site is available. Critical facilities
constructed within the SFHA shall have the lowest floor elevated three feet (approximate 500-year floodplain) or
more above the level ofthe base flood elevation at the site. Floodproofing and sealing measures must be taken to
