SB 1012 - This act modifies provisions relating to the National Flood Insurance Program. NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE PROGRAM (Section 49.600) Under current law, the county commission in all counties which have not adopted county planning and zoning may adopt or rescind by order or ordinance regulations to require compliance with Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) standards necessary to comply with the National Flood Insurance Program. No ordinance or order shall be effective unless the county submits to the voters a proposal to authorize the county commission to adopt such an order or ordinance. Under this act, all counties which are located in whole or in part in a flood hazard area according to FEMA shall adopt or rescind by order or ordinance regulations to require compliance with FEMA standards necessary to comply with the National Flood Insurance Program. This act repeals the provision that the county must submit the proposal to voters. PERMITS (Section 49.605) This act provides that any permit shall not raise the flood elevation of the one hundred year flood level more than one foot and shall require that the lowest floor of an insurable structure shall be above the one hundred year flood level and that all structures shall be adequately anchored to prevent movement of the structure, provided that any required National Flood Insurance Program permit issued for the purposes of commercial or industrial development shall not raise the flood elevation of the one hundred year flood level more than one tenth of a foot as provided in the act.
