  a transparent public process for incorporation of best available data for
  regulator use;
• Revise
  language regarding non-conforming structures and uses to be consistent with the
  rest of the code;
• Revise
  language regarding appeals and variances to decisions made under the floodplain
  regulations to be consistent with the rest of the code; and,
• Update
  related provisions in the code in order to best protect the health, safety, and
  welfare of county residents in the event of future floods.
