Speak
Your Mind, Win a Prize—It's User Survey
Time Again
May 21, 2007
Note:
archived article, survey ended June 15th
 Our latest easy online
survey, which you can complete
in five minutes or less, will
give us valuable feedback and give you
a chance to win a prize.
We've made it easy
for you. Just go to the survey
pages (survey is now closed!) and select from the mostly
multiple choice responses (add your written
comments if you wish). All survey takers
(except King County employees and their families)
who leave contact information will be eligible
for a random drawing for this year's prize,
the 2008 edition of the Thomas Guide® for
King, Pierce, and Snohomish counties. The
survey will be available online from
May 21 through June 15. The prize drawing
will be held on June 20th. And you
can count on the survey results appearing
in the form of the ongoing services provided
to the community by iMAP and Parcel Viewer.
Easier
Access to Online Mapping
New, shorter, easier-to-remember
and easier-to-type web addresses now simplify access to Parcel Viewer
and iMAP. Anyone who does not already have the launch pages for
the applications bookmarked (you're on the Parcel Viewer launch
page) now needs to remember only the application names themselves.
And it's easier and quicker to type the new address if you want
to send them to a friend or colleague. All you need is the address
for the KCGIS website: www.metrokc.gov/gis, followed by the name
of the application.
Parcel Viewer is www.metrokc.gov/gis/ParcelViewer
iMAP is www.metrokc.gov/gis/iMAP
Return users will
be happy to know that their current bookmarks to these application
launch pages are still valid.
Condominium Unit Descriptions Now Available
Parcel
Viewer now provides better support for finding information about
condominium complexes and individual condominium units.
- Users can now enter an individual condominium
unit's parcel number in Parcel Viewer to zoom to the parcel for
the condominium complex. (Note: the parcel number is
the first 10 digits of the 12-digit
tax account number.)
- Near the top of the property report for each
condominium complex parcel, we have added a link which will allow
you to retrieve a table that lists all of the units in the complex.
- The table lists the taxpayer name, building
number, unit number, and taxable value of each unit in the complex.
- Each individual unit listing in the table
links back to a complete property report for the unit.
