Variance
|
| Variance is a grant of relief from the requirements of Floodplain Management Standards which permits construction in a manner otherwise prohibited by ordinance where specific enforcement would result in unnecessary hardship. The granting of a variance does not remove the requirements for flood insurance which lending institutions will require if the property is the seacured by a loan. Flood insurance rates will be much higher for structures built below the Base Flood Elevation. |
