GIS Layer Number = 44 level I/Originally drawn from source maps provided by Elections Department. Most recent versions were corrected in certain areas to meet with Santa Cruz County Office of Educations' approval. The boundary verification was done by their consultant, Donn Wallace. The Santa Cruz County Office of Education remains the authority of this layer and changes come to us in the form of letters from them following action by the Santa Cruz County Committee on School District Organization. These data were compiled from many different sources; therefore, the accuracy of the individual layers varies significantly, and some layers do not align exactly with others. In the urban areas, data are generally accurate within five to ten feet of their true geographic coordinates, but in the rural areas, data may be accurate to only within three hundred feet. With these limitations, the County of Santa Cruz disclaims any responsibility for the accuracy or correctness of this data. This disclaimer is exclusive and in lieu of any warranties, fitness for particular purpose, and/or any other type of warranty, whether expressed or implied.
