Text amendment to update Title 49 flood management regulations to meet Federal Emergency Management Agency requirements (AME2021 0002)

To participate in the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) National Flood Insurance Program, CBJ must adopt and enforce specific floodplain management regulations, FEMA’s Flood Insurance Study for the Borough, and FEMA’s Flood Insurance Rate Map. Federal requirements established that the final pending map, study, and regulations would be effective on September 18, 2020, following CBJ Assembly adoption. On June 23, 2020 the Planning Commission approved a Notice of Recommendation to the CBJ Assembly to adopt the minimum revisions and the Assembly approved these revisions and the final ordinance on August 24, 2020. However, FEMA regulations require additional changes to update the regulations to meet minimum federal requirements. Changes consist of minor clarifications on permitting procedures and additional definitions. These changes provide clarity to both CBJ staff and the public regarding the implementation of mandatory regulations. No new regulations are proposed.
