- Development increasing flood elevation allowed with CLOMR
Development activities in zones A1-30, AE, or AH on Cumberland County's FIRM which increase the water surface elevation of the base flood by more than one (1) foot may be allowed, provided that the applicant first applies—with Cumberland County's endorsement—for a conditional letter of map revision, and receives the approval of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
- No new construction unless cumulative effect does not increase flood elevation more than 1 foot
Until a regulatory floodway is designated, no new construction, substantial improvements, or other development (including fill) shall be permitted within the areas of special flood hazard, designated as zones A1-30, AE, or AH on the FIRM, unless it is demonstrated that the cumulative effect of the proposed development, when combined with all other existing and anticipated development, will not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one (1) foot at any point within Cumberland County.
From the ordinance
The AE, or AH zones, on the FIRM accompanying the FIS shall be those areas for which one percent (1%) annual chance flood elevations have been provided and the floodway has not been delineated.
