Associate, copy, or move inspection districts with a parcel
After you have created parcel records, you can use the District tab for the parcel to manage the associated inspection districts. Based on your agency’s user group settings, you may or may not have access to all the features described in this section. Contact your agency administrator for more information.
Users can associate the parcels with inspection districts, which enables inspectors, for example, to organize inspections within a designated area.
