<br />2. The danger that materials may be swept onto other lands or downstream <br />to the injury of others; <br /> <br />3. The proposed water supply and sanitation systems and the ability of <br />these systems to prevent disease, contamination, and unsanitary <br />conditions; <br /> <br />4. The susceptibility of the proposed facility or use and its contents <br />to flood damage, and the effect of such damage on the individual owner; <br /> <br />5. The importance of the services provided by the proposed facility or <br />use to the community; <br /> <br />6. The requirements of the facility or use for a waterfront location; <br /> <br />7. The availability of alternative locations not subject to flooding; <br /> <br />8. The compatibility of the proposed use or structure with existing and <br />anticipated development; <br /> <br />9. The relationship of the proposed use to the comprehensive plan; <br /> <br />10. The safety of access to the property in times of flood for ordinary <br />and emergency vehicles; <br /> <br />ll. The expected heights, velocity, duration, rate of rise and sediment <br />transport of the floodwaters expected on the site; and, <br /> <br />l2. Such other factors relevant to the purpose of this ordinance. <br /> <br />XXI FLOODPROOFING MEASURES <br /> <br />When the Board declares that a structure must be adequately f1oodproofed in <br />granting of a Conditional Use or Variance, the applicant for said permit shall <br />submit certification by a Professional Engineer registered in the commonwealth <br />of Virginia that the floodproofing measures are consistent with the regulatory <br />flood level and with associated flood factors for that particular area. The <br />following floodproofing measures may be required without limitation because <br />of specific enumeration: <br /> <br />A. Anchorage to resist flotation and lateral movement. <br /> <br />B. Installation of watertight doors, bulkheads, shutters, or similar methods <br />of construction. <br /> <br />C. Reinforcement of walls to resist water pressure. <br /> <br />D. Use of paints, membranes, or mortar to prevent seepage of water through <br />walls. <br /> <br />E. Addition of mass or weight to structures to resist flotation. <br /> <br />F. Installation of pumps to lower water levels in structures. <br /> <br />-10- <br /> <br />".,...........--..".....----"--.."".,_.._.._--~_..^ <br />
