Gaps and Overlaps in Parcel Fabric

Has anyone experienced any gaps and overlaps in the parcel fabric when creating a subdivision using the New Subdivision from CAD workflow?

I have already tried Unjoining and Rejoining several times without any success.

The parcel fabric does support overlapping parcels from the same type (e.g. historic tax parcels) or different parcel types (e.g. subdivisions and tax parcels). If you have unintended overlaps and gaps it could be due to the following reasons:

  1. It was always a problem and migrated that way - in this case consider remigrating the data. Having good data integrity and vertical alignment between parcels is highly recommended for data migration. There is a variety of tools and procedures you can apply to your data prior to data migration depending on your source data.
  2. Missing line points - After data migration we recommend running the merge courses tool to create line points. After line points are created, you will not see a gap/overlap a line that has other parcel corners along it moves ("T junctions without breaking the line).
  3. Bad Join links - if a join line of any type is missed you might see overlaps and gaps when any of the parcels move. the fix is easy - use rejoin to create and link that was missed.

You can also contact technical support to work on your specific issue

This happens to me all the time. I see it all the time with curves.  If you have a 200' curve with a radius of 500 on one side and the other its four parcels with 50' curves with a 500 radius they don't line up perfectly.  I can't figure out how to solve this problem.  I have found if I create the subdivision perfectly the first time and ZERO edits occur to the area afterward its more likely to be fine.  However if there is a lot line adjustment it tends to get goofed.

omg yes, this right here. i struggle with this almost daily during the new subdivision season. i wish we could join to curves and not just the radial point
