Section 18:23A-1.12 - Boundary lines of municipalities

(a) Boundary lines of the municipality shall be determined either by running traverse lines in the field or from other reliable sources.

1. If traverses are run, they shall be closed and the computations may be requested by the Property Administration, Tax Map Inspection/Railroad Assessment Section for review.

2. Reliable sources may be defined as recent tax maps of the adjoining municipalities, old maps and description of the municipality, known monuments and land marks in the boundary line itself, and determination by appointed commissioners as to the location of any disputed lines pursuant to 40A:13-1 et seq.

(b) Boundary lines of the municipality shall be shown by a very prominent, heavy dash and double dotted line (See Standards, Page S1).

(c) Along each portion of the boundary line of the municipality shall be shown the name and limit of each adjacent municipality and county, both on the Key Sheet or Sheets and on the Detail Sheets.

(d) Tax maps must show a special assessment line for properties (lots) assessed on both sides of the municipal boundary. When assessment of a lot extends beyond the municipal boundary line in either direction, an assessment line shall be shown. These lines should be pointing to the assessing municipality (See Standards, Pages S1 and S14).

(e) Any lot with a partial lease must have the leased areas indicated with dashed lines (including dimensions). If areas are larger than one acre, the acreages shall be shown (See Standards, Page S37).
