Overview State Agencies need standardized, statewide parcel data in order to answer questions about the effectiveness of state programs, plan for transportation construction projects, and identify economic development opportunities (just to give a few examples). This need provides an opportunity for a win-win partnership between state government and towns in Vermont, because the state does NOT want to duplicate your town's parcel mapping efforts. How will this project affect your town? If your town currently keeps your tax maps up to date and has digital parcel data that reflect those maps: the project will FUND the update and upgrade of your data for one year so that it meets the NEW state data standard(which means easy joining to your grand list!). If your town hasn't updated your maps and/or digital parcel data recently:the project will FUND the update and upgrade of your data for one year so that it meets the NEW state data standard (which means easy joining to your grand list!). If your town doesn't have tax maps or doesn't have digital parcel data:the project will FUND the creation of your parcel data so that it meets the NEW state data standard (which means easy joining to your grand list!). All data created and updated will be available to the town and will appear on state-sponsored online mapping applications like the ANR Atlas and the E911 Viewer.   What about future updates? In addition to the 3-year project to bring all municipal parcel data up to the standard, anongoing programis being created to support the continuing update and compilation of parcel data. Bring your questions about the data development project and the ongoing program to this informational meeting!
