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)
