SB 1002

Current law requires that various state agencies annually submit to the

Department of Administration a plan to integrate land information so that the

information is readily available for use by any state, local governmental unit, or

public utility. Under current law, DOA must receive the land information integration

plans by March 31 of each year. Under the bill, the Department of Public Instruction

is also required to annually provide a land information integration plan.

The bill requires the land information officer of each county to annually submit

to DPI a digital mapping file of the boundaries of each school district in whole or in

part within the county. In addition, the real property lister of each county must

assign each lot in a subdivision created after the bill's effective date to the

appropriate school district and notify DPI of that assignment. Under the bill, if the

lot includes the boundary of two or more school districts, the real property lister must

assign the lot to the school district that encompasses more than 50 percent of the lot's

property. However, lots created by the subdivision platting process designated as

next phase or identified as for future development and being greater than five acres

are not subject to school district reassignment by the real property lister.

Finally, the state superintendent must annually publish and maintain a

statewide school district boundary layer that is compatible with the statewide digital

map maintained by DPI.
