§ 208-1422.   Warning and Disclaimer of Liability.

A.         The degree of flood protection required by this Article is considered reasonable for regulatory purposes.  Larger floods may occur on rare occasions or the flood height may be increased by man-made or natural causes.  In such instances, areas outside the Floodplain (FP) District or land uses permitted within the district may be subject to flooding or flood damages.  The granting of a zoning permit or approval of a plan in the Floodplain (FP) District shall not constitute a representation, guaranty or warranty of any kind by Marshall Township or by any official or employee thereof of the practicability or safety of any structure, use or other plan proposed and shall create no liability upon or a cause of action against such public body, official or employee for any damage that may result pursuant thereto.  Nor shall this Article create any liability on the part of the township or any officer or employee thereof for any flood damages that result from reliance on this Article or any administrative decision lawfully made thereunder.
