Does anyone else have "ghost parcels," or something similar? We have these as intermediate parcels that are used to calculate assessed value for the final parcels. They are basically the smallest parcel shapes involved in a Lot Line Adjustment. These are then merged to create the final child parcels.
We need to start drawing them in the fabric as an intermediate step before creating the final child parcels to calculate the acreage of them. In the past we have just ignored them, and gone straight from the parent parcels to drawing the child parcels.
My question is: how should we handle these in the data model? I don't want them in either the current or historic parcels. But I also don't want to just get the acreage, then delete them; we might want to go back and refer to them.
I'm thinking maybe we create a separate parcel type for them, but I'm not sure how the workflow would look to create them in the regular Tax parcel feature class, then move them over to their separate parcel feature class.
Has anyone else found a good method for doing this, or have suggestions?
