ORDINANCE 2012-036 building or structure subsequent to the effective date of this ordinance. If the structure has incurred "substantial damage," any repairs are considered substantial improvement regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not, however, include either: 1. Any project for improvement of a building required to correct existing health, sanitary, or safety code violations identified by the building official and that are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions. 2. Any alteration of a historic structure provided the alteration will not preclude the structure's continued designation as a historic structure. SECTION 6. FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT. In terms of design, plan application review, construction and inspection of buildings and structures, the cost impact as an overall average is negligible in regard to the local technical amendments because all development has been subject to the requirements of the local floodplain management ordinance adopted for participation in the National Flood Insurance Program. In terms of lower potential for flood damage, there will be continued savings and benefits to consumers. SECTION 7. APPLICABILITY. For the purposes of jurisdictional applicability, this ordinance shall apply in unincorporated Indian River County. This ordinance shall apply to all applications for development, including building permit applications and subdivision proposals, submitted on or after the effective date of this ordinance. SECTION 8. REPEAL OF CONFLICTING ORDINANCES. Any and all ordinances and regulations in conflict herewith are hereby repealed to the extent of any conflict. SECTION 9. INCLUSION IN THE CODE OF LAWS AND ORDINANCES. It is the intent of the Board of County Commissioners that the provisions of this ordinance shall become and be made a part of the Indian River County Code of Laws and Ordinances, and that the sections of this ordinance may be renumbered or relettered and the word "ordinance" may be changed to "section," "article," "regulation," or such other appropriate word or phrase in order to accomplish such intentions. SECTION 10. SEVERABILITY. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this ordinance is, for any reason, declared by the courts to be unconstitutional or invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the ordinance as a whole, or any part thereof, other than the part so declared.
