CASSELBERRY CITY COMMISSION Minutes of April 28, 2014 — Regular Meeting Page 10 of 17 for the Code updates, but that the Florida Building Code had gone through a major update a couple of years ago, and that as a result the City's floodplain ordinance is now out of date and municipalities are required to update their floodplain ordinance to comply with the Florida Building Code. He noted that the City of Casselberry is not the only municipality that is subject to this requirement. He also gave some examples where references to stormwater regulations are located in several different places in the City's Code and through this revision an effort will be made to consolidate those into just a couple of locations which will assist developers in locating and understanding what is required by the City relating to stormwater and environmental issues. Dr. Brock reiterated that what staff is trying to accomplish is to bring the City Code in compliance with the Florida Building Code and gain consistency with other jurisdictions such as St. Johns Water Management District, in addition to cleaning up outdated and confusing language. He added that this should help created a business friendly environment, promote redevelopment while at the same time balance environment protection.
