If a proposed building site is located in an area of special flood hazard, all new construction and substantial improvements shall meet the applicable standards of this article;
C. Determine whether any proposed development in an area of special flood hazard may result in physical damage to any other property (e.g., stream bank erosion and increased flood velocities). The Director may require the applicant to submit additional technical analyses and data necessary to complete the determination. If the proposed development may result in physical damage to any other property or fails to meet the requirements of this article, no permit shall be issued.
