Projeto foi bem sucedido
As an initial result creating the mapping resource saved the County around $100,000 in staff time that would otherwise have been spent creating case files for each affected property (477 in all). Property owners also saved countless hours and avoided frustration in an already very challenging situation. The maps will be continually updated with new information, adding to their value.
