The floodplain districts described above shall be overlays to the existing underlying districts as shown on the official Zoning Map and, as such, shall supplement the August 2, 2012, flood map referred to above, and provisions of the floodplain districts shall serve as a supplement to the underlying district provisions.
B. 
Where there happens to be any conflict between the provisions or requirements of any of the floodplain districts and those of any underlying district, the more restrictive provisions shall apply.
C. 
All provisions of the Susquehanna Township Floodplain Ordinance shall apply to all floodplain districts.
