SPASSCD Special assessments

JV Just value. Factors to be considered in determining just value are: present cash value; use; location; quantity or size; cost; replacement value of improvements; condition; income from property; and net proceeds if the property is sold. The net proceeds equal the value of the property minus 15% of the true market value. This accounts for the cost of selling the property.

AV Assessed value of property. This equals the annual determination of the just or fair market value of an item or property or the value of the homestead property as limited pursuant to s. 4(c), Art. VII of the State Constitution or, if a property is assessed solely on the basis of character or use or at a specified percentage of its value, pursuant to s. 4(a) or (b), Art. VII of the State Constitution, its classified use value or fractional value.

TV Taxable value. This equals the assessed value of property minus the amount of any applicable exemption provided under s. 3 or s. 6, Art. VII of the State Constitution and chapter 196 such as enterprise zones, etc.

CONST If in the tax year there is an improvement on the property, this is the value of the improvement (negative values indicates deletion).

LAND Classified use value of land, if applicable; otherwise just value of land (ie Value of the land minus improvements or agriculture value of the land).

UNITSCD Units for how the property is assessed (by acre, sq. foot, front foot, etc.).
1 = Per acreage

2 = Per square footage

3 = Per front footage without typical lot dimensions

4 = Per front footage without typical lot dimensions

The following list shows the the parcel layer with the original number of records
and the number of records that were rejected (i.e. did not make it into SDE). The
Percentage field indicates the percent of the records that were successfully

A note about data scale: 

Scale is an important factor in data usage.  Certain scale datasets
are not suitable for some project, analysis, or modeling purposes.
Please be sure you are using the best available data. 

1:24000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
county level.
1:24000 data should NOT be used for high accuracy base mapping such
as property parcel boundaries.
1:100000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
multi-county or regional level.
1:125000 scale datasets are recommended for projects that are at the
regional or state level or larger.

Vector datasets with no defined scale or accuracy should be
considered suspect. Make sure you are familiar with your data
before using it for projects or analysis. Every effort has been
made to supply the user with data documentation. For additional
information, see the References section and the Data Source Contact
section of this documentation. For more information regarding

DATA LINEAGE SUMMARY:
GeoPlan received this dataset from the Florida
Department of Revenue (FDOR) in 2006 on a
DVD. The dataset was in shapefile format, 
and was in the following projection: State Plane 
Projection NAD 83, Feet (north, east, and west). 
The dataset was projected to FGDL Albers HPGN.

Added fields; AYRBLT, LUCODE, and DESCRIPT.
- Calculated AYRBLT based on the parcels actual year 
  built from various other tables.
- Calculated LUCODE based on the parcels land use value 
  UCOLD, added value 100 for uses not covered.
- Calculated DESCRIPT based on the FDOR description for 
  the UCOLD values.
Process Date: 20060830
