SERIES: 26846
TITLE: Municipal boundary records
DATES: 1998-
ARRANGEMENT: Grouped by file type, thereunder chronological

DESCRIPTION: These geospatial records document municipal boundaries in the state of Utah and were first created through a cooperative effort of the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget, the Utah Department of Transportation, the Utah State Tax Commission, and AGRC. All incorporated municipalities in the state through dates varying from 1984 to 1992 were initially represented. Updates for further annexations and deannexations were completed with the cooperative efforts of the State Tax Commission, Property Tax Division, and AGRC. Data developed with coordinate geometry (COGO) from legal descriptions were used. When necessary, the data were adjusted to conform to known physical features. Due to adjustments to resolve conflicting or ambiguous data, the result was more a physical cadastre than a legal one. In other words, these records do not represent exact legal boundaries as per surveyed description, but rather a set of boundaries used for the administrative purposes that conforms to logical and administrative rules (e.g. no two cities or redevlopment areas may cover the same geographic extent).
