History: 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. Within said
regulations, the duties to administer the regulations fall upon the
"Floodplain Administrator". The Public Works Director is appointed as
the Floodplain Administrator per the regulations, and said Director no
longer exists.
