Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of legacy pollutants formerly used in commercial and industrial processes, with peak use between 1950 and 1980. "Old Industrial" indicates that an area's land use was Industrial prior to 1980 and has not yet been redeveloped. Regional monitoring data demonstrate higher loads of PCBs in stormwater runoff from Old Industrial areas, compared with other land uses types. In order to reduce PCBs runoff to the Bay, the City will investigate and treat Old Industrial areas, on a parcel-by-parcel basis. Investigation occurs through sample collection and lab testing, as well as desktop analysis. Treatment to control or abate PCBs runoff may include redevelopment, full trash capture device installation, enhanced street sweeping, and implementation of BMPs or cleanup on confirmed source properties. This layer shows the current investigation and treatment status for each Old Industrial parcel in San Jose. Data updated annually.

City Boundary is a Polygon FeatureClass that represents the extent of the City of Cupertino's land base and used to author multi-scale basemaps. This layer provides a visual and editable Cupertino city boundary. The layer is updated as needed by the GIS division. City Boundary has the following fields: OBJECTID: Unique identifier automatically generated by Esri type: OID, length: 4, domain: none

CITY: The city in which the address is located type: String, length: 10, domain: noneGlobalID:Unique identifier automatically generated for features in enterprise databasetype: GlobalID, length: 38, domain: none

Shape: Field that stores geographic coordinates associated with feature type: Geometry, length: 4, domain: none

Label: The label associated with the boundary type: String, length: 50, domain: none Shape.STArea():

The area of the shape - in square feet type: Double, length: 0, domain: none

Shape.STLength():

The length of the shape - in feet type: Double, length: 0, domain: none

This layer was created for the redistricting project map. BUSD provided a powerpoint file that showed the boundaries since they could not locate the original shapefile that was used. The core information used the generate the boundaries are the image in the powerpoint file and the 2020 census block boundaries. The source of image used is described below by the original contractor Bruce Wicinas. I was drafted to help BUSD around 1991. At that time they used planning software authored by a San Jose company, "Educational Data Systems." This was long before ESRI was known to the likes of school districts or acknowledged by the Census Bureau. "Educational Data Systems," which had many school district clients around the U.S., performed their own particle-ization of school district geography. They divided districts into rectangles of approximately 4 - 8 city blocks. These they called "planning areas." They were convenient. BUSD they divided into 445, a number neither too fine nor too coarse.Many years later, .shp files became widely available. Alas, not all Planning Area perimeters coincide with line segments of .shp files. In the Berkeley flatlands the discrepancies are not so bad. But in the hills, there aren't "blocks" but meandering strips. "Planning Areas" have line segments which don't correspond to streets or perimeters of .shp files.About 15 years ago I enhanced my custom software to read shp files. Thus I could superimpose Planning Areas and .shp files, observing the overlap discrepancies. I'll omit for now the rest of this story; what I did about the discrepancy between census Block Groups and Planning Areas. I could go into that if you are interested.I got "Planning Areas" into my custom software from the ancient EdSys data, somehow ,decades ago. I may have read a file containing polygon coordinates. At that time I could export the planning area polygons via DXF. But they have no relationship to .shp. I could provide a representation of GIS planning areas in coordinates such as "State Plane" but this probably does you no good. I have never written an ".shp" file exporter. The .shp file format is mind-boggling; archaic compared to modern methods.About 25 years ago I wrote an on-line means by which staff at BUSD can type in a Berkeley address and get the corresponding socio-ec category number. It does this by determining the "planning area number" - 1 through 445 - containing the address. That on-line software could provide the attendance zone as well but no one ever asked for that. The student assignment software used by the high school and by admissions performs that function internally. Every student has an attendance zone number as soon as they get added to the database.
