| | 3. FLOOD ZONE. THE SUBMITTED RESPONSE IS NOTED, HOWEVER |
| | THE CITY OF WEST PALM BEACH CODE OF ORDINANCES REQUIRES |

| | INCH FREEBOARD SO THAT THE CITY CAN MAINTAIN ITS |
| | COMMUNITY RATING SYSTEM (CRS) RATING WHICH GIVES WEST |
| | PALM BEACH PROPERTY OWNERS FLOOD INSURANCE DISCOUNTS |
| | THAT EXCEED MANY JURISDICTIONS. IF THE CITY DOES NOT |
| | ENFORCE THE PROVISION OF THE ORDINANCE AN AUDT BY FEMA |
| | WOULD RESULT IN INCREASED FLOOD INSURANCE RATES FOR ALL |
| | WEST PALM BEACH PROPERTY OWNERS. WE WILL NOT ALLOW THAT |
| | TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OF ANY ONE PROJECT. YOUR RESPONSE IS |
| | NOT CORRECT AND CANNOT BE THE FINAL RECORD. ACCORDING |
| | TO THE ADOPTED FLOOD INSURANCE RATE MAPS (FIRMS), THE |
| | PROPOSED BUILDING IS IN FLOOD ZONE AE, WITH A BASE |
