Commission adopts Model D floodplain ordinance with recommended enforcement and amendment language
Summary
The county approved the Model D floodplain ordinance after staff added provisions on remedies and a clause describing how the commission would handle later amendments.
The Ramsey County Commission voted to adopt the Model D floodplain ordinance with two staff-recommended additions: clarified remedies available to the county for noncompliant structures and a provision describing the amendment process (the commission must vote to amend the ordinance).
Why it matters: Staff said the edits should make the ordinance easier to administer and better align county procedures with DWR and FEMA expectations. Daniel (staff) recommended adopting the draft as submitted to reduce future administrative friction.
Vote: A motion to approve the ordinance with the recommended changes was made and seconded and the commission approved the measure by voice vote.
