I know the MCWD uses the 931.5 <br /> BFE plus 2 feet of freeboard,or 933.5 (NGVD29), for the lowest opening. The city's ordinance (in Sec. 78-1111, (19)) <br /> requires the lowest floor to be at 932.5 (NGVD29). <br /> Fyi—part of the supporting information to verify this is that on preliminary new panel 304—see at <br /> ftp://ftp.dnr.state.mn.us/pub/waters/floodplain/County data/Hennepin/27053 DFIRM preliminary/FIRMS/Hennepin% <br /> 20Non%2ORevised%2OMaps/27053CO304F.Pdf-it shows Ponds A, B, C& D on the east side of French Lake. Those <br /> ponds are shown as detailed study areas in the preliminary new maps. Ponds A& B have the same BFE as Lake <br /> Minnetonka, Pond C has a BFE 0.1 foot higher than Lake Minnetonka, and Pond D has a BFE 0.3 feet higher than Lake <br /> Minnetonka. <br /> And, I looked at the FEMA Letter of Map Amendments on the rest of French Lake, and one of the other recent ones did <br /> show the BFE they were using, so I'm attaching that fyi. <br /> Ceil Strauss <br /> State Floodplain (NFIP) Manager <br /> DNR Eco/Waters Division <br /> Box 25 <br /> 500 Lafayette Road <br /> St. Paul, MN 55155-4025 <br /> 651-259-5713 (direct) <br /> From: Melanie Curtis [mailto:MCurtis@ci.orono.mn.us] <br /> Sent: Monday, October 27, 2014 6:00 PM <br /> To: 'Brandon Wisner'; Strauss, Ceil C (DNR); Jiwani, Suzanne (DNR) <br /> Cc: David P.
