Review, Use and Development of Other Base Flood Data: When base <br /> flood elevation data has not been provided in accordance with Section <br /> 41.3.2, the Floodplain Administrator shall obtain, review and reasonably <br /> utilize any base flood elevation and flOodway data available from a federal <br /> or state agency, or other source, in order to administer Article V. Any <br /> such information shall be submitted to the City Council for adoption. <br /> C. Notification of Other Agencies.

Documentation of Floodplain Development.

Map Determinations. Make interpretations where needed, as to the exact <br /> location of the boundaries of the areas of special flood hazard. Where <br /> there appears to be a conflict between a mapped boundary and actual <br /> field conditions, grade and base flood elevations shall be used to <br /> determine the boundaries of the special flood hazard area. The person <br /> contesting the location of the boundary shall be given a reasonable <br /> opportunity to appeal the interpretation as provided in Article V. <br /> F. Remedial Action. Take action to remedy violations of this Chapter as <br /> specified in Section 41.3.3. <br /> Sec. 41.4.3.
