Flood Ordinance

Note: Please review the Rivergrove Flood Map (JPG) first before consulting this ordinance to see if the property is in a designated flood area. Flood regulations are very difficult to understand, so if you are planning to dig, build, or cut trees on a lot that is partially or completely blue on the flood map, please contact the City Manager first for clarification.
