Floodplain building restrictions are regulations imposed by local or federal authorities to limit construction and development in areas prone to flooding. These restrictions aim to reduce flood risks to properties and protect natural water flow. They often include requirements for elevated structures, prohibitions on certain types of developments, and guidelines for land use that minimize environmental impact. Compliance with these restrictions is typically necessary to qualify for flood insurance and other federal assistance programs.
