This is a vector file that represents tax parcels boundaries in Monroe County, New York. According to § 102. Definitions (of the Real Property Tax Law of New York State):"Parcel" means a separately assessed lot, parcel, piece or portion of real property, except publicly owned bridges and land used for street, road, highway or parkway purposes. A parcel shall not be bisected by a municipal corporation boundary line except that in a special assessing unit a parcel may be bisected by a school district or village boundary line. For more information on parcels, see the "Parcel" feature class in the RPS_Parcels feature dataset that is maintained by the Monroe County Real Property Services (RPS) department from which this layer was created. The difference between this parcel feature class and the RPS parcel feature class is the latter is updated daily by RPS staff by digitizing new parcel features and does not contain assessment roll data. This layer is recreated biannually by DES staff by joining RPS parcels with the same assessment roll data used to create the Base_County_Parcel_Centroids feature class.

This vector line file represents road, railroad, and municipal boundary centerlines within Monroe County, New York. These centerlines combine for a total of 4,625 centerline miles. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the County has a total area of 1,366 square miles, of which 659 square miles is land and 706 square miles (51.72%) is water. This layer has been continously updated by the Monroe County Department of Environmental Services since it received the file in 2001 from the Genesee/Finger Lakes Regional Planning Council. It is currently maintained with information provided by the 9-1-1 Emergency Communications Department (ECD), tax parcel data obtained from Monroe County Real Property Services, as well as current aerial photography, street abandonment and dedication reports, and input from municipalities. This layer is the single authoritative source of centerline information in Monroe County.

© Development of the centerline file began in 1999 when the Genesee Transportation Council contracted with the Genesee/Finger Lakes Regional Planning Council (G/FLRPC) to create a road file with accurately positioned street centerlines and corresponding address ranges. With involvement from Monroe County, G/FLRPC rectified Enhanced TIGER/Line Files to Monroe County's digital real property tax parcels. Monroe County Department of Environmental Services (DES) obtained the rectified centerline file in 2001 and has enhanced and maintained it ever since (2001, Monroe County Department of Environmental Services, Rochester, NY). This layer is sourced from mappingmonroe.monroecounty.gov.

This map is made using content created and owned by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development (Esri user HUD.Official.Content). The map uses their Low to Moderate Income Population by Tract layer, filtered for only census tracts in Monroe County, NY where at least 51% of households earn less than 80 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI). The map is centered on Rochester, NY, with the City of Rochester, NY border added for context. Users can zoom out to see the Revitalization Areas for the broader county region.The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program requires that each CDBG funded activity must either principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight, or meet a community development need having a particular urgency because existing conditions pose a serious and immediate threat to the health or welfare of the community and other financial resources are not available to meet that need. With respect to activities that principally benefit low- and moderate-income persons, at least 51 percent of the activity's beneficiaries must be low and moderate income. For CDBG, a person is considered to be of low income only if he or she is a member of a household whose income would qualify as "very low income" under the Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments program. Generally, these Section 8 limits are based on 50% of area median. Similarly, CDBG moderate income relies on Section 8 "lower income" limits, which are generally tied to 80% of area median. These data are derived from the 2011-2015 American Community Survey (ACS) and based on Census 2010 geography.Please refer to the Feature Layer for date of last update.Data Dictionary: DD_Low to Moderate Income Populations by Tract

description: These GIS files represent geographic boundaries for lands that are under the protection of NYS Agricultural District Law, administered by the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets. The boundaries are derived from New York State Agricultural District, 1:24,000-scale, maps produced at county agencies. The district boundaries correspond to tax parcel data. District boundaries are joined into a file representing all of the Agricultural Districts within an entire county. Note that 2003 legislation allows lands to be added to districts on an annual basis. Electronic data provided here may predate those additions. Tax parcel detail and secondary rights-of-way are not included in this dataset. Rights-of-way for state and federal highways, railroads and utilities are only included when they are delineated on the original 1:24,000 scale maps. The data files are in ArcGIS shapefile format.; abstract: These GIS files represent geographic boundaries for lands that are under the protection of NYS Agricultural District Law, administered by the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets.

These roads were created by using the modern road network (downloaded form NYS Geospatial Clearinghouse: https://gis.ny.gov/gisdata/inventories/details.cfm?DSID=932) and altering them to match the georeferenced "Monroe Co 1858 Gillette Rochester Inset" map found at https://urochester.maps.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=569007183f0f44f185b0a7ad2175b50fNote that in some cases road names may not match the 1858 map because the names were pulled from the modern layer and not all of them were altered to match the historical names.

This web map depicts the lead high risk areas within Rochester, NY.What is the Rochester lead law? What properties are affected by the lead law?In December 2005, the City of Rochester adopted a local Lead Based Paint Poisoning Prevention Ordinance that requires inspections for lead paint hazards as an extension of the city’s existing inspection processes (Certificate of Occupancy, complaints, referrals, etc.), which applies to rental units within the City limits. This law went into effect on July 1, 2006.Most pre-1978 rental properties in the City of Rochester that require a Certificate of Occupancy are covered by this law. What does it mean that a property is within a high risk area?The lead ordinance requires that City designate high risk area, reflecting properties recorded with historic elevated blood lead level data and the recommendations of the Monroe County Department of Public Health to be classified with this designation. Properties in these high risk areas are subject to additional inspection requirements and a separate citation, violation, and clearance process.What is the City doing in regard to these high risk areas?Since the passage of the lead ordinance, the City has conducted over 100,000 lead inspections, including inspections of every residential dwelling unit within the high risk areas. For up-to-date reports on this effort, please see the lead program page on the Department of Neighborhood and Business Development website.
