A. 
Characteristics. This district is established to meet the needs of Davis Creek and tributaries to carry abnormal flows of water in time of flood to prevent encroachments into the district which will unduly increase flood heights and damage, and to prevent the loss of life and excessive damage to property in the area of greatest flood hazard, as may exist prior to the construction of adequate flood control measures.

Special Provisions.

4. 
The granting of approval of any structure or use shall not constitute a representation, guarantee or warranty of any kind or nature by the City of Mound City or the Commission, or by any officer or employee of either thereof, of the practicality or safety of any structure or use proposed and shall create no liability upon or cause action against such public body, officer or employee for any damage that may result pursuant thereto.
5. 
Upon submission to the Commission of evidence to the effect that adequate area-related flood control measures have been installed, subject to the approval of the City's Engineer, the Commission shall initiate a change of zone petition to bring respective land parcels into conformity with adjacent zone district(s) on the respective sides of the watercourse(s).
