This data identifies current as well as proposed zoning and land use designations that are adopted by ordinances for unincorporated Pierce County. Zoning for cities is not included in this dataset. Zones are adopted by ordinances with specific technicalities for each community. Land Use designations offer a broad spectrum of allowable uses within a community. It is used to create a Comprehensive Plan Map or used for a Generalized Proposed Land Use Map or GPLUM. This dataset is also used to create the Land Use Designations theme, which covers proposed zoning use. The meaning of proposed is that the property might not be currently used for the purpose stated. It should be noted that Council adopted amendments to land use designations/zoning that will be effective at the beginning of 2006. Also, the Council is in the process of adopting the Mid-County Community Plan which amends land use designations/zoning as well. The Cities polygons found in the zoning data does not necessarily match the current cities boundaries. This is because the zoning data is updated once a year per the "Pierce County Comprehensive Plan" and does not allow for changes to be made during the year. The Comprehensive Plan is generally updated in November and generally becomes effective the following March. Use the "Cities in Pierce County" data set to determine current city boundaries. City boundaries can change more often than the current adopted Pierce County Zoning data. The zoning data contains the "Cities in Pierce County" boundaries at the time that the Pierce County Zoning was adopted. When determining the current zoning of a parcel near a city, the current "Cities in Pierce County" data set needs to be reviewed. Zoning codes for parcels within incorporated cities are determined by the city that the parcel is within.

As part of a Channel Migration Zone Study, GeoEngineers, Inc. was contracted by Pierce County, Public Works Surface Water Management formerly “Water Programs” Division to create a series of shapefiles including the SPC_Migration_Potential_Areas.shp. Pierce_Migration_Potential_Areas.shp combines the include severe, moderate or low migration potential areas. GeoEngineers, Inc. completed migration potential studies of the White, Puyallup and Carbon Rivers (completed 2003 adopted 2005), South Prairie Creek (completed 2005 adopted 2017) and Upper Nisqually River (completed 2007 adopted 2017). These were accepted by SWM and Adopted by County Council.The MPA delineation involved identifying severe, moderate and low migration potential areas within the delineated CMZ. The MPA delineation approach is similar to that employed in our CMZ analysis; that future rates and character of migration will be similar to those of the past for similar water discharges, sediment influx, and debris entrainment conditions. This analysis was also based on the absence of levees, revetments and other confining structures. The width of each MPA was measured, based on delineation criteria developed specifically for this project, and then adjusted to accommodate geomorphic conditions not accounted for in the maximum migration rates. Criteria developed for mapping severe, moderate and low MPA are provided in the following paragraphs: Severe MPA includes the area lying inside the HCOT, and an area immediately outside the HCOT boundary equivalent to a distance the channel could travel in a specified period. The extent of the Severe Migration Potential Area outside the HCOT boundary is determined by two criteria. The first criterion is the distance the outside channel edge could travel in 10 years of steady lateral migration away from the HCOT boundary (Maximum lateral migration rates multiplied by a ten- year period). The second is defined by the distance the outside channel edge could travel in storm single event (i.e. maximum overnight rate) from the current channel position (2002). The landward most boundary of the two criteria defines the Severe Migration Potential Area.Moderate MPA includes areas adjacent to the outside edge of the severe migration potential area. The width of the moderate migration potential area is determined by the distance the outside channel edge could travel in five years (for South Prairie Creek 10 years) of steady lateral migration beyond the outside edge of the severe migration potential area. The CMZ boundary will serve as the outside edge of the moderate migration potential boundary at sites where the distance between the severe migration potential boundary and the CMZ boundary represents less the five years (for South Prairie Creek 10 years)of steady lateral migration. Moderate migration potential areas are not included at sites where the outside edge of the severe migration potential area is determined by the location of the CMZ boundary. The rate of migration used in the calculation is the maximum average rate of migration for each geomorphic reach (measured as described above). In some places the width of the Moderate Migration Potential Area may be modified based on geologic interpretation, professional judgment. Low MPA includes areas adjacent to the outside edge of the moderate migration potential area. The extent of the Low Migration Potential Area beyond the moderate migration potential boundary will be determined by CMZ boundary, as determined by our CMZ evaluation. Low migration potential areas will not be included at sites where the outside edge of either a severe or moderate migration potential area is determined by the location of the CMZ boundary. The most common adjustments typically involved widening the moderate MPA to include ancient abandoned channel deemed capable of arresting main stem flow in an avulsion event. Other common Moderate MPA adjustments involved increasing or decreasing the base width to accommodate the following conditions; The presence of native erosion resistant bank materials, such as the Osceola Mudflow or local downstream or oblique direction of meander bend migration.

DATA LINKED FROM PIERCE COUNTY OPEN DATA PORTAL - Clipped by City of PuyallupSee the metadata and original layer hereAbstract:This is a comprehensive building address point layer for Pierce County, Washington. Every unique house number has a point located within the building footprint of the addressed structure (where possible). Multi-unit structures, mobile home parks, and buildings with the same street address are further identified by mailstop in the attribute table. Some vacant parcels may or may not have an assigned temporary address point. A permanent address will be assigned to a vacant parcel if a permitted structure is built on that parcel. In unincorporated Pierce County, the address points were created individually by a team of technicians based on scanned address maps from the Planning Department and Assessor-Treasurer's Department site address data. For incorporated areas, source data was gathered either in the form of address points, tabular data, or we visited the city and took photos of their paper maps, then created points based on those photographs. Pierce County began construction of this data in 2008, and in the intervening years the data has been constantly refined through field inspection and review using various imagery source such as Google StreetView. Please be aware this data is constantly being updated and is only a snapshot at any given time. Data is provided to Pierce County by many jurisdictional sources throughout the County, and it may be neither complete or 100% accurate. If an error is found please contact the jurisdiction first to discuss the error.Purpose:The Address Point dataset is intended to improve emergency response, County business applications and processes, and provide a dependable address source County-wide. This dataset will also be used to enhance geocoding services.

"SimCon Second Division" is short for "Simultaneous Conveyance Second Division". It is part of a set of data called "Land Division - All". Please read through all of the following to fully understand what this data is. A conveyance is the transfering of legal title of property from person(s) or entity to another. A "Simultaneous Conveyance" is the transfer of multiple properties using a single survey document. Examples of this are plats, short plats, condiminiums, etc. The "Simultaneous Conveyance" data contains the current aggregated highest-level formal land divisions (plats, short plats, large lots, etc). Meaning that the most recent "Simultaneous Conveyance" type is what is represented in this data. In other words, there are no overlapping "Simultaneous Conveyances" in this data, a newer "Simultaneous Conveyance" erases what was present before at that location. There are two data sets related to the "Simultaneous Conveyance" data: "SimCon First Division" and "SimCon Second Division". "SimCon First Division" contains the next level down of polygons within the "Simultaneous Conveyance". For example a plat that contained blocks and lots would only have its blocks in this data. A plat that contained lots and no blocks would have its lots in this data. "SimCon Second Division" contains the next level down of polygons within the "SimCon First Division" data. For example a plat that contained blocks and lots would have its lots in this data.Please read the metadata (https://matterhorn.piercecountywa.gov/GISmetadata/pdbparc_simconseconddivision.html) for additional information.
