Property Projects
The Property Identification Project produced maps from
aerial photographs and geographical indexes. Block and lot
maps were made tram surveys of plat and deed books. During
this process some property was discovered not to be on the
assessor's books which resulted in an increase in collectable
taxes in many cities.
A Sanitary Survey, emphasizing drinking water,was
conducted in Jefferson County. Information about polluted
wells was given to the users and attempts were made to locate
the pollution source.
Real Property Surveys provided a basis for local planning
and zoning legislation in Louisville, Ashland, Lexington, and
Owensboro.
Records of the property projects are grouped together in
this inventory because it was not always possible to determine
exactly to which project some material belonged.
