PlaceDossier

Find the titled lot (ParcelMap BC parcel) for a BC street address, a PID, the plan in a legal description ("Lot 5, Plan KAP12345", or the old form with its land district, "KDYD, Plan 1234"), or a point. Returns each lot's PID (for parcel_report), plan, mapped area and report page. Only an exact civic address match is one lot; a street, block or point between lots lists the lots around the spot, nearest first, and a plan lists its lots (the open parcel map carries no lot numbers, so pick by plan and size, or on the page).

One lot's report by PID: for each section a status (flag = look into, clear = nothing to flag, info = for reference, gap = not covered here, error = not available yet) and a one-line answer; for the sections named, also the facts behind it, notes, and sources with licences. Sections: zoning, buildable, sun, alr, soil, flood, fire, evac, seismic, landslides, radon, fcsi, access, water, lake, minerals, habitat, nextdoor, noise, wells, septic, services, internet, climate, svt, tax, crime (the lake section only beside a sampled lake). Zoning rules are our dated summary of the bylaw. A lot nobody has looked up yet takes 10 to 20 seconds to build. No scores, valuations or owner names.
