Hi all,
I set up the public notification tool and everything works properly.
However, I just noticed that the buffer created by the application (and thus the number of output addresses) is significantly smaller compared to the same operation used in ArcMap. For example, a 300ft buffer on a parcel yields 22 addresses, a buffer with the same distance in ArcMap (using the parcel boundary) yields 30 addresses.
Does the buffer in the application use the parcel centroid instead of the parcel boundary? If so, how and where do i change it to the parcel boundary, since the boundary setting is the required setting for us.

Cheers!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention! I've submitted a request to have this modification included in a future release of this app.
