Consider an ordinance amending Chapter 3, Section
3.1006 of the Round Rock Code of Ordinances to comply
with the National Flood Insurance Program. (First
Reading)

Danny Halden, City Engineer
The federal government established the National Flood Insurance
Program (NFIP) so that flood insurance would be available to property
owners. As a participating community in the NFIP, the City was
required to adopt regulations regarding flood damage prevention.
Said regulations have been adopted as Section 3.1000 of Chapter 3
(Building Regulations) of the Round Rock City Code.
These proposed changes would adopt and incorporate into the Code
the "Flood Insurance Study for Williamson County, Texas and
Incorporated Areas" dated September 27, 1991, and the "Flood
Insurance Study for Travis County, Texas and Incorporated Areas"
dated June 16, 1993.
