1.

A parcel based layer providing an address based on spatial overlay where available, and a range of other property related attributes.

To produce PARCEL_ADDRESS_AREA , PARCEL_AREA is spatially joined to ADDRESS_POINT to obtain address attributes, KROLLIDX_AREA to obtain a Kroll page reference, PAA_AREA to obtain potential annexation area attributes, and PLSS_AREA to obtain section-township-range.

It is also joined on PIN to RPACCT_EXTR, PARCEL_EXTR, CONDOCOMPLEX_EXTR, and CONDOUNIT_EXTR to obtain property, taxpayer, and assessment related attributes from the KC Assessor office.

In many cases multiple addresses are spatially coincident with one parcel, and in those cases only one arbitrarily selected address is used to populate the address attribute information.
