BUILDING INFORMATION
The following building information was obtained through property cards.
The lowest finished floor.
For the Elevation Action and Floodproofing Action, all buildings would be raised or floodproofed to elevation 15, except for the firehouse. Because the firehouse is a critical facility, it would be mitigated to elevation 16. These elevations are required and dictated by FEMA flood protection design standards and are calculated by being 1 foot above the FEMA FIRM BFE of elevation 14 for non-critical facilities, and 2 feet above the BFE for critical facilities.
The following data were retrieved from the building’s property card:
Lowest finished floor
If the building is elevated on an open foundation
Building Type
First Floor Area
Building size (area of entire building)
