Section 18:23A-1.5 - Scales

(a) Maps shall be drawn to the following scales, depending on lot sizes, density and classification of the municipality:

1. City and urban districts shall use: 1 inch = 50 feet and 1 inch = 100 feet; however, large parcels of land such as airports or industrial tracts should be detailed at a scale not to exceed 1 inch = 200 feet or 1 inch = 400 feet, depending on size. Example: No parcel of land over 15 acres should be detailed at a scale of 1 inch = 50 feet.

2. Rural districts--1 inch = 200 feet and 1 inch = 400 feet;

3. Large tracts, such as Federal, State, county, municipal and airfields, may be detailed on the key map or separate detail sheets at scales to be agreed upon by the Tax Map Inspection/Railroad Assessment Section, the municipality and the tax map maker.

(b) The same scale shall be used on all detail sheets throughout the taxing district, but where special conditions require the use of more than one scale, this shall be done as indicated in (a) above.

(c) On tax map sheets with large parcels that cannot be clearly shown on a smaller scale, a supplemental sheet(s), drawn to a larger scale may be used to show properties in a minor settlement or development. If space allows, a small development also may be detailed as an inset.
