What this is

This dataset tracks legal land documents like deeds, easements, and ordinances filed with the city.

Why it matters to you

These records affect property rights, construction plans, and neighborhood changes. For example:

  • If you’re buying a home, checking for easements (like utility access) could reveal hidden limits on your property.
  • A new ordinance might block a business expansion you’re planning.
  • Deeds show who legally owns or transfers land—key for disputes or development.

How to read this data

Key fields include:

  • Document Type: Tells you if it’s a deed (ownership transfer), easement (shared rights), or ordinance (local law).
  • Location/Address: Where the document applies—compare to your property or area of interest.
  • Grantor: Who signed over rights (e.g., a seller or government agency).
