§ 30.56.100. Warning and Disclaimer of Liability.

The standards in this Chapter are reasonable for regulatory purposes and are based on scientific and engineering considerations largely determined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Floods may occur which result in damage. This Chapter is not intended to imply that development in accordance with these standards is immune from flood damage or that development on properties outside the areas designated as Special Flood Hazards, Areas of Mudslide (i.e., mudflow) will continually be free from flooding or flood damages. In including and enforcing the provisions of this Chapter, the City, including any officer or employee thereof, shall not assume liability for any flood damages that result from reliance on this Chapter or from any decision or action on a permit application lawfully made thereunder.
