The ordinance is drafted and available in the office of the Clerk. The hearing and first passage are set for
Tuesday the 8th. 3rd reading normally would be February 12. If we need to have the ordinance effective
by January 21, you will need to ask the Council to suspend the requirement for 2nd and 3rd reading. If 5
Council members agree to suspend, the ordinance could be published and effective on or about January
15.

t Subject Fw: Flood Plain Ordinance Amendment Reminder -Ames
Here's something I didn't know about the upcoming flood ordinance update we're working on -fyi.
What's our schedule look like for getting this through the process?
(If I'd known about this"FEMA thing" I'd have started on this earlier.)
Thanks

Subject RE: Flood Plain Ordinance Amendment Reminder Ames
Just a couple of comments. Although everything you receive from FEMA says February 20`h, if it isn't in
the FEMA database by then, they will suspend the community. If it isn't in the FEMA database 30 days
prior to the effective date, the community's name is included in the Federal Register Notice listing
communities that have not adopted the new map and that will be suspended on February 20, 2008 if it
isn't adopted by that date (I know they say"by" but they mean before— it is a FEMA thing).
In the past Tonya and I have been able to "rush" one or two through by having the community fax me a
copy and mail her one directly. HOWEVER, Tonya is retiring, effective tomorrow, and until her position is
filled other's will be "helping" out. I am not going to comment beyond that.
I'll be in all day today (until 3:45) and Thursday, but leaving early (11:00)on Friday.

Sandra:
It's being prepared by our legal department now, and scheduled for Council approval prior to Feb.
20.
As soon as I have the ordinance from legal I'll shoot you a copy for your review and comment.
Thanks!
I'll give you a call soon (next year) - I have a couple of questions.

Diane:
Given the lastest on FEMA's rules, please format this item to request that Council suspend rules and pass
on first reading.
In the meantime, I'll be talking to John Joiner(who's out of the office until tomorrow)to prepare an answer
to the question(s):
"Are there any significant differences between the new flood maps and the previous maps?"
if so,
"Would you briefly describe those changes?"

David:
The Council dates that I gave you were germane to the ordinance's effective date on or before
FEBRUARY 20. When I read Doug's response to you, he's referencing an effective datq of JANUARY 21,
which changes things dramatically. If it is JANUARY 21, then we would have to suspthe rules and
pass on all three readings AND ADOPT on January 8. Please let me know ASAP.

Subject Flood ordinance update-FEMA letter to Mayor Campbell
Good Morning:
Yesterday I received a copy of a letter from FEMA dated January 17. The original was directed by certified
mail to Mayor Campbell.
It is a reminder of the deadline for submittal of our ordinance adopting the new flood maps. This is to
assure you there is no need for concern.
I sent our ordinance to our State Coordinator, by certified mail, and it was received by that office on
January 16.
On the 17th, the State Coordinator forwarded our documents to FEMA.
Thus we have met the required deadline.
It appears the FEMA letter and our documents have crossed in the mail.
