2. I have seen a map of the flood elevation contour for my property superimposed on a <br /> map of my property boundaries and the 615' elevation contour which is the same <br /> elevation as the spillway for Lake Orange. Some inconsistencies can be seen by <br /> examining the various contours shown on or near my property. I question the accuracy <br /> of the data when displayed together and to be used for compliance assessment <br /> according to the Zoning Ordinance. I have been cautioned on many occasions by <br /> Orange County Staff that the GIS data available has limited accuracy and that, as stated <br /> on the GIS website: "Orange County and its vendors assume no legal responsibility for <br /> the information". How can it be used for assessment of compliance to the proposed <br /> Special Flood Hazard Overlay? <br /> What accuracy is ascribed to the Flood Maps relative to the County's data for property <br /> boundary lines? <br /> I also support the proposals made by Lynette Hartsell and Steve Richardson who have <br /> previously talked tonight— requesting the Commission to recognize the unique status of Lake <br /> Orange and to establish a Task Force to address issues pertinent to property owners and others <br /> with interest in the access to and the use of Lake Orange. <br /> Ken Terlep <br /> Cedar Grove <br /> February 23rd, 2009 <br /> Craig Benedict said that the exact words of the Flood Damage Prevention Ordinance as <br /> it is being incorporated into the zoning ordinance is available through the internet and in the <br /> postcards that were sent out. <br /> John Hartwell said that his house sits close to the Eno River on a steep bank. He has a <br /> Certification of Elevation. He said that the maps are being amended and the public should see <br /> all of the information. <br /> Judith Kramer owns a home on New Hope Creek, which has flooded twice in the last 12 <br /> years. She commended the County for considering taking this action to ensure that the <br /> residents of Orange County have access to the National Flood Insurance Program. She said <br /> that there is a benefit of having FEMA's protection in a flood situation. She has some concerns <br /> about the methods of notification of important changes in the flood maps when property is <br /> affected. She said that she was shocked to find out from her mortgage company that she was <br /> no longer in a floodplain, because she never received notification by the County or FEMA. This <br /> was related to the change in a map in 2007. She knew that she was at risk of flooding because <br /> her home was flooded during a hurricane. She suggested taking history into account. <br /> Robert Brown lives near a creek. He said that the flooding that he has seen has been <br /> due to water restrictions or the size of the bridge, which has backed the water up. <br /> Wallace Williams said that he and his wife live 80 feet above the floodplain. He asked if <br /> the Planning Board would give him a hard time if he tried to build something on his property. <br />
