The identified floodplain areas shall be those areas of the
Borough of Wilmerding which are subject to the one-hundred-year flood,
as identified in the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) dated September 27,
1993, and the accompanying maps prepared for the Borough of Wilmerding
by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), or the most recent
revision thereof.
The identified floodplain area may be revised or modified by
the Council where studies or information provided by a qualified agency
or person documents the need for such revision. However, prior to
any such change, approval must be obtained from the Federal Insurance
Administration (FIA).
Should a dispute concerning any identified floodplain boundary
arise, an initial determination shall be made by the Borough of Wilmerding
Planning Commission, and any party aggrieved by this decision may
appeal to the Council. The burden of proof shall be on the appellant.
