Recorder and surveyor request staff and a multi‑phase remap to address mapping backlog

The recorder/surveyor presentation highlighted a significant mapping backlog and increased workload tied to county growth. The presenter said the mapping backlog has improved from more than six months to about eight weeks, but that progress has relied on overtime and senior staff taking on production tasks. Staff reported roughly 69 new regular mapping items per week, 46 subdivisions in review and approximately 7,500 parcels that have never been mapped, and requested three geospatial/cadastral mapping specialists to build capacity.
