Lowest f/oor means the lowest floor of the lowest enclosed area (including basement). An
unfinished or flood resistant enclosure, used solely for parking of vehicles, building access, or
storage in an area other than a basement area, is not considered a building's lowest floor.
(13) Manufactured home means a structure,transportable in one or more sections, which is built
on a permanent chassis and is designed for use with or without a permanent foundation
when attached to the required utilities. The term "manufactured home" does not include the
term "recreational vehicle."
(14) Obstruction means any dam, wall, wharf, embankment, levee, dike, pile, abutment,
projection, excavation, channel modification, culvert, building, wire, fence, stockpile, refuse,
fill, structure, or matter in, along, across, or projecting into any channel, watercourse, or
regulatory flood plain which may impede, retard, or change the direction of the flow of water,

structures.
(16) Reach means a hydraulic engineering term to describe a longitudinal segment of a stream or

seasonal use. For the purposes of this article, the term recreational vehicle shall be
synonymous with the term travel trailer/travel vehicle.
(18) Regional f/ood means a flood which is representative of large floods known to have occurred
generally in Minnesota and reasonably characteristic of what can be expected to occur on an
average frequency in the magnitude of the 100-year recurrence interval. Regional flood is
synonymous with the term "base flood" used in a flood insurance study.
(19) Regu/atory f/ood protection elevation means an elevation no lower than one foot above the
elevation of the regional flood plus any increases in flood elevation caused by
encroachments on the flood plain that result from designation of a floodway.
a. The regulatory flood protection elevation within the floodway and flood fringe districts,
except for Lake Minnetonka, shall be established by adding 1.0 foot to the base flood
water surface elevations within floodway listed in the floodway data table contained in the
flood insurance study. Regulatoryflood protection elevations between cross sections shall
be interpolated.
b. The regulatory flood protection elevation for Lake Minnetonka shall be 932.5 MSL.
c. The regulatory flood protection elevation within the general floodplain district shall be
calculated by a qualified registered professional engineer in accordance with procedures
set forth in this article.

restoring the structure to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed 50 percent of
the market value of the structure before the damage occurred.
(22) Substantial improvement means, within any consecutive 365-day period, any reconstruction,
rehabilitation (including normal maintenance and repair), repair after damage, addition, or
other improvement of a structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50 percent of the
market value of the structure before the "start of construction" of the improvement. This term
includes structures that have incurred "substantial damage," regardless of the actual repair
work performed. The term does not, however, include either:
a. Any project for improvement of a structure to correct existing violations of state or local
health, sanitary, or safety code specifications which have been identified by the local code
enforcement official and which are the minimum necessary to assure safe living
conditions.
b. Any alteration of an "historic structure," provided that the alteration will not preclude the
structure's continued designation as an "historic structure." For the purpose of this article,
"historic structure" shall be as defined in Code of Federal Regulations, Part 59.1.
(23) Variance means a modification of a specific permitted development standard required in an
official control including this article to allow an alternative development standard not stated
as acceptable in the official control, but only as applied to a particular property for the
purpose of alleviating a practical difficulty as defined and elaborated upon in a community's
respective planning and zoning enabling legislation.
