The City of Bremerton has the legal authority aid responsibility to adopt regulations designed to promote the public health and general welfare of its citizenry pursuant to Article XI, Sections 10 and 1 I of the Washington State Constitution and Article III of the Bremerton City 'hailer. 17.60.020 FINDINGS OF FACT. (a) The flood hazard areas of the City are subject to periodic inundation which results in loss of life and property, health and safety hazards, disruption of commerce and governmental services, extraordinary public expenditures for flood protection and relief, and impairment of the tax base, all of which adversely affect the public health, safety and general welfare. (b) These flood losses are caused by the cumulative effect of obstructions in areas of special flood hazards which increase flood heights and velocities, and when inadequately anchored, damage uses in other areas. Uses that are inadequately floodproofed, elevated or otherwise protected from flood damage also contribute to the flood loss.

(a) Variances may be issued for the recostruction, rehabilitation or restorati non of structures listed on the National Register of Historic Places or the State Inventory of Historic Places that will not preclude the structure's continued designation as a historic structure and the variance is the minimum necessary to preserve the historic character and design of the structure without regard to the procedures set forth in the remainder of this section. (b) Variances shall not be issued within any designated floodway if any increase in flood levels during the base flood discharge would result. (c) Variances shall only be issued upon a determination that the variance is the minimum necessary, considering the flood hazard, to afford relief. (d) Variances shall only be issued upon: (1) A showing of good and sufficient cause; (2) A determination that failure to grant the variance would result in exceptional hardship to the applicant; and (3) A determination that the granting of a variance will not result in increased flood heights, additional threats to public safety, extraordinary public expense, create nuisances, cause fraud on or victimization of the public as identified in BMC 17.60.180, or conflict with existing local laws or ordinances. (e) Any applicant to whom a variance is granted shall be given written notice that the structure will be permitted to be built with a lowest floor elevation below the base flood elevation and that the cost of flood insurance will be commensurate with the increased risk resulting from the reduced lowest floor elevation. (f) Variances as interpreted in the National Flood Insurance Program are based on the general zoning law principle that they pertain to a physical piece of property; they are not personal in nature and do not pertain to the structure, its inhabitants, or economic or financial circumstances. They primarily address small lots in densely populated residential neighborhoods. As such, variances from the flood elevations should be quite rare. (g) Variances may be issued for nonresidential buildings in very limited circumstances to allow a lesser degree of floodproofing than watertight or dry floodproofing, Page 11 of 18 City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter 17.60 Rev. 09/202I Floodplairr Marrngemerrt where it can be determined that such action will have low damage potential, complies with all other variance criteria, except this section, and otherwise complies with BMC 17.60.240. 17.60.230 FLOOD HAZARD PROTECTION -GENERAL STANDARDS. In all areas of special flood hazards the standards set out in BMC 17.60.240 through 17.60.280 are required. 17.60.240 ANCIIOI2ING.

(b) All subdivision proposals shall have public utilities and facilities such as sewer, gas, electrical and water systems located and constructed to minimize flood damage. (c) All subdivision proposals shall have adequate drainage provided to reduce exposure to flood damage. (d) Base flood elevation data shall be provided for subdivision proposals and other proposed development which contain at least fifty (50) lots or five (5) acres, whichever is less. Page 12 of 18 City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter` 17.6© Rev. U9/2021 Floadplain Management I7.60.280 REVIEW OF BUILDING PERMITS. Where elevation data is not available either through the Flood Insurance. Study or from another authoritative source (BMC 17.60.140(b)), applications for building permits shall be reviewed to assure that proposed construction will be reasonably safe from flooding. The test of reasonableness is a local judgment and includes use of historical data, high water marks, photographs of past flooding, etc., where available. Base flood elevation data and reference marks are generally provided throughout Bremerton and are indicated on Bremerton's flood insurance map. Failure to elevate at least two (2) feet above grade in these zones may result in higher insurance rates. 17.60.290 FLOOD HAZARD PROTECTIOIOT -SPECIFIC STANDARDS. In all areas of special flood hazards where base flood elevation data has been provided as set forth in BMC 17.60.070, the provisions set out in BMC 17.60.300 through 17.60.320 are required. 17.60.300 RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION. (a) New construction and substantial improvement of any residential structure shall have the lowest floor, including basement, elevated to one (1) foot or• more above base flood elevation. (b) Fully enclosed areas below the lowest floor that are subject to flooding are prohibited, or shall be designed to automatically equalize hydrostatic flood forces on exterior walls by allowing for the entry and exit of floodwaters. Designs for meeting this requirement must either be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect or must meet or exceed the following minimum criteria: (1) A minimum of two (2) openings have a total net area of not less than one (1) square inch of every square foot of enclosed area subject to flooding shall be provided. (2) The bottom of all openings shall be no higher than one (1) foot above grade. (3) Qpenings may be equipped with screens, louvers, or other coverings or devices; provided, that they permit the automatic entry and exit %J floodwaters. A aaraf4e attached to a residential structure constructed rvith the �sara e floor slab below the BFF must be designed to allow for the automatic Lrtr and exit of flood 17.60.310 NONRESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION. New construction and substantial improvement of any commercial, industrial or other nonresidential structure shall either have the lowest floor, including basement, elevated to one (1) foot or more above the level of the base flood elevation, or, together with attendant utility and sanitary facilities, shall: (a) Be floodproofed so that below one (1) foot or more above the base flood level the structure is watertight with walls substantially impermeable to the passage of water, (b) I -lave structural components capable of resisting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic loads and effects of buoyancy; and (c) Be certified by a registered professional engineer or architect that the design and methods of construction are in accordance with accepted standards of practice for meeting provisions of'this section based on their development and/or review of the structural design, Page 13 of 18 City Ordinance Form BMC Chapter' 17.60 Rev. 09/2021 Floadplain tYla►iagement specifications and plans. Such certifications shall be provided to the official as set forth in BMC 17.60.140(c)(2). (d) Nonresidential structures that are elevated, not floodproofed, must meet the same standards for space below the lowest floor as described in BMC 17.60.300(b). (e) Applicants floodproofing nonresidential buildings shall be notified that flood insurance premiums will be based on rates that are one (1) foot below the floodproofed level (e.g., a building constructed to the base flood level will be rated as one (1) foot below that level). 17.60.315 CRITICAL FACILITY. Construction of new critical facilities shall be, to the extent possible, located outside the limits of the special flood hazard area (SFHA) one hundred (100) year floodplain. Construction of new critical facilities shall be permissible within the SFHA if no feasible alternative site is available. Critical facilities constructed within the SFHA shall have the lowest floor elevated three (3) feet above BFE or to the height of the five hundred (500) year flood, whichever is higher. Access to and from the critical facility should also be protected to the height utilized above. Floodproofing and sealing measures must be taken to ensure that toxic substances will not be displaced by or released into the floodwaters. Access routes elevated to or above the level of the base flood elevation shall be provided to all critical facilities to the extent possible. 17.60.320 MANUFACTUREll/MOBILE HOMES, All manufactured/mobile homes in the floodplain to be placed or substantially improved on sites shall be elevated on a permanent foundation such that the lowest floor of the manufactured/mobile home is elevated one (1) foot or more above the base flood elevation and be securely anchored to an adequately anchored foundation system to resist flotation, collapse and lateral movement. 17.60.32.5 I2ECI2EATIONAL VEHICLES. Recreational vehicles placed on sites in the floodplain are required to either: {a) Be on the site for fewer than one hundred eighty (I 80) consecutive days; or (b) Be fully licensed all d ready for highway use, on wheels or jacking system, attached to the site only by quick disconnect type utilities and security devices, and have no permanently attached additions; or (c) Meet the requirements for manufactured/mobile homes as found in BMC 17.60.320. 17.G0.330 FLOOD�VAYS. Located within areas of special flood hazard established in BMC 17.60.070 are portions of Gorst and Parish Creeks which are designated as floodways. Since the floodway is an extremely hazardous area due to the velocity of floodwaters which carry debris, potential projectiles, and erosion potential projectiles, and erosion potential, the following provisions apply: (a) Prohibit encroachments, including till, new construction, substantial improvements and other development unless certification by a registered professional engineer or architect is provided demonstrating that encroachments shall not result in any increase in flood levels during the occurrence of the base flood discharge; Page 14 of 18 City Ordinance Form BMC Chcrpfef' 17.60 Rev. 09/2021 Floodphrift Ma�ir�ge�nenf (b) If subsection (a) of this section is satisfied, all new construction and substantial improvements shall comply with all applicable flood hazard reduction provisions of, 17.60.230 through 17.60.320; (c) Construction or reconstruction of residential structures is prohibited within designated floodways, except for: (1) Repairs, reconstruction, or improvements to a structure which do not increase the ground floor area; and (2) Repairs, reconstruction or improvements to a structure, the cost of which does not exceed fifty (50) percent of the market value of the structure either: (i) Before the repair or reconstruction is started, o}• (ii) If the structure has been damaged, and is being restored before the damage occurred. Work done on structures to comply with existing health, sanitary, or safety codes which have been identified by the Code Enforcement or Building Official and are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions shall not be included in the fifty (50) percent determination in subsection (c)(2) of this section: (d) Manufactured/mobile homes are prohibited in designated floodways, I7.60.340 ZONES WITH BASF FLOOD ELEVATIONS BUT NO FLOODWAYS. In areas with base flood elevations (but a regulatory floodway has not been designated), no new construction, substantial improvements, or other development (including till) shall be permitted within Zones AI-30 and AE on the community's FIRM, unless it is demonstrated that the cumulative effect of the proposed development, when combined with all other existing and anticipated development, will not increase the water surface elevation of the base flood more than one (1) foot at any point within the community. :lllt",OzA:�--ls rAIUlId-2-lE-�i'�-PIP 4 Ta 11 4 i?
