The degree of flood protection required by this chapter and the Florida Building Code,
as amended by this county, is considered the minimum reasonable for regulatory purposes
and is based on scientific and engineering considerations. Larger floods can and will
occur. Flood heights may be increased by manmade or natural causes. This chapter does
not imply that land outside of mapped special flood hazard areas, or that uses permitted
within such flood hazard areas, will be free from flooding or flood damage. The flood
hazard areas and base flood elevations contained in the flood insurance study and
shown on flood insurance rate maps and the requirements of Title 44 Code of Federal Regulations, Sections 59 and 60 may be revised by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, requiring this
county to revise these regulations to remain eligible for participation in the National
Flood Insurance Program. No guaranty of vested use, existing use, or future use is
implied or expressed by compliance with this chapter.
