Available at http://purl.stanford.edu/hg183rj0027. GIS Layer Number = 68/ State responsiblity boundaries were drawn onto relevant USGS 7.5 minute quadrangle sheets. Boundaries were then interpreted to follow closest parcel boundary or road line on our GIS files. The boundaries were plotted and reviewed by the County's Advanced Planning staff. These data were compiled from many different sources; therefore, the accuracy of the individual layers varies significantly, and some layers do not align exactly with others. In the urban areas, data are generally accurate within five to ten feet of their true geographic coordinates, but in the rural areas, data may be accurate to only within three hundred feet. With these limitations, the County of Santa Cruz disclaims any responsibility for the accuracy or correctness of this data. This disclaimer is exclusive and in lieu of any warranties, fitness for particular purpose, and/or any other type of warranty, whether expressed or implied. This layer is presented in the WGS84 coordinate system for web display purposes. Downloadable data are provided in native coordinate system or projection.
