APPRAISAL
Administrative
This disposition is based on the reference rate of encroachment permits. These records are looked at quite frequently, far beyond the standard three-year audit period. The extended reference value of district copies is due to the fact that they contain large maps of subdivisions, curb and gutter installments, or buried cable information which are important for administrative reference.
