| 709 | 2018 | 74594 | City of Boynton Beach | Boynton Beach | United States of America | North America | CDP Cities | public | Flash/surface flood | Hazard resistant infrastructure design and construction | The City of Boynton Beach has adopted and currently enforces floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed the minimum standards and requirements for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP requirements can be found in Chapter 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR), which requires that all new construction and substantial improvements of residential structures located within the floodplain (e.g., Special Flood Hazard Area) shall be elevated to the base flood elevation (BFE), which is the point in elevation that surface water resulting from a flood has a one (1) percent chance of equaling or exceeding that level in any given year. The BFE is the national standard used by the NFIP and all federal agencies for the purposes of requiring the purchase of flood insurance and regulating new development. The City also has its own Flood Prevention Code, which can be found in the land development regulations (Part III, Chapter 4, Article X). While not required by the NFIP, each community is encouraged by FEMA to adopt higher regulatory standards, such as the freeboard requirement. Freeboard is simply requiring structures to be elevated above the BFE. Freeboard requirements for additions and/or substantial improvements require the existing building to be elevated to the base flood elevation only, which is still in compliance with 44 CFR. New building construction however, is required to be elevated at least one (1) foot above the BFE. To verify that a building has been properly elevated, the City of Boynton Beach requires the completion of an Elevation Certificate by a professional engineer or surveyor. | 73992 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-80.216, 26.4986]} | 2019-10-16T18:32:22.947 | ||||||||

| 724 | 2018 | 31182 | City of San Francisco | San Francisco | United States of America | North America | C40, CDP Cities, ICLEI - Local Governments for Sustainability | public | Rain storm | Resilience and resistance measures for buildings | Operation | • The SFPUC is funding many projects to reduce storm water runoff, recharge groundwater, recapture stormwater and protect the urban watershed. Green Infrastructure projects highlight these efforts which deploys strategies such as permeable paving and rainwater gardens, among others to slow down and clean stormwater keeping it from overwhelming the City's combined sewer and water system. Through a long-term planning process, the Urban Watershed Assessment will identify green and grey sewer improvements over the next twenty years. Effective January 1st, 2017, San Francisco became the first U.S. city to mandate solar and living roofs on most new construction. With the passage of this legislation, between 15% and 30% of roof space on most new construction projects will incorporate solar, living roofs, or a combination of both.• The SFPUC has developed a Draft 100-Year Storm Flood Risk Map that shows areas of San Francisco where significant flooding from storm runoff is highly likely to occur during a 100-year storm. The purpose of the Draft Map is to inform existing and future property owners about flood risk on their properties and promote resilience. The SFPUC has come together with other City agencies and stakeholder groups to reduce flood risk that property owners face through infrastructure investments, targeted City services, and innovative new programs. In addition, SFPUC is building a robust flood resilience strategy and notifying property owners that they are within a flood zone via the Draft Map is one of the tools SFPUC is employing. Many San Francisco residents have already taken advantage of the SFPUC's various programs to help them prepare and better protect their properties from major rain events, such as: purchase flood insurance through FEMA; apply for the Floodwater Grant Program; review the Flood Preparedness brochure and refer to the Floodwater Grant Program; contact 311 to report issues such as flooding, clogged catch basins, sewer backups, and displaced manhole covers; participate in Adopt a Drain SF; monitor the weather reports carefully. | 870887 | 2016 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-122.419, 37.7749]} | 2019-10-16T18:32:22.947 | |||||||

This initiative will include funding projects identified in the City’s Watershed Improvement Plans, leveraging partnerships through the Green Infrastructure Strategic Action Plan, and providing incentives for customers to install green infrastructure best management practices (BMP’s) on private property to help manage on-site stormwater runoff. The Department of Watershed Management has proposed a comprehensive Stormwater Management Program to be supported by a sustainable stormwater utility fee established through the standard practice of billing property owners based on the amount of impervious surface present on a property. The program will be modeled after a combination of national best practices and programs from neighboring jurisdictions. Atlanta’s stormwater utility fee will be designed to specifically address equity concerns by providing grant programs to ensure low-income residents are neither adversely affected by the cost of the fee nor unable to participate in BMP implementation programs. | 450182 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-84.388, 33.749]} | 2019-10-16T18:32:22.947 | |||||||
