|
Available information: |
The interactive map shows planning-related information in an easy-to-use, graphical format.
The map is organized into layers that can be turned on or off as needed for improved viewing.
Map layers include:
|
Map Navigation: |
Choices listed on the green toolbar on the left side of the screen determine what happens when you click on the
map. For example, if you click on the word "Zoom In"
on the green toolbar, then click on the map, a new map will draw at a larger scale. Hint:
To zoom-in closer, click-and-hold the mouse button, then move your mouse to draw a
box on the map.
|
Wait for the map to finish: |
Drawing a map on your browser can take several seconds. The map
must finish drawing before the next click will be accepted. |
View Permit Information |
Parcels with permit information available are shaded yellow on the map.
The yellow highlight may be turned ON or OFF using a "checkbox" () tool.
Permit information is updated at the beginning of each week.
Parcel lines must be visible on the map to view information from the Permit Database. If parcel lines are not visible, Zoom In closer (see above). To view the data, click on "View Permit Information" on the left side of the screen. Then click on the map over a parcel. A new browser window with permit information will be displayed.
The window with permit information is reused each time a parcel is clicked.
If the map window completely covers the other window, the new permit information will be updated, but may not be visible.
Hint: you may wish to view the map at less than full screen on your monitor. |
Find a Parcel ID: |
If you know the 14-digit property identification number (parcel ID), you can enter it in the text box and press 'Enter' or click the 'Go' button.
The search should take no more than a few seconds.
When the search is completed, the map will redraw centered over the selected parcel. |
View the Aerial Photo: |
Several map layers are listed on the lower-left side of the screen, including color aerial photographs taken on the 1st and 2nd of June, 2007.
Use the check box next to a layer to turn it on/off as desired. Note: some map layers are not visible when viewing maps of large areas.
|
Zoning Information: |
One of the available data layers is County Zoning.
Note: a single zone can sometimes have two different text labels on the map.
This is part of the dynamic labelling process: if one zone is centered on the map and is completely surrounded by another zone, both text labels may appear in the center of the inner zoning area.
|
Browser compatibility: |
A recent browser (Firefox, Netscape 4.5+, Internet Explorer 4.0 or greater) is recommended to view the interactive map.
In general, your browser must not block pop-up (new) windows, must show pictures, enable JavaScript, and be able to send unencrypted information (form data) over the Internet. Hint: you may wish to view the map at less than full screen on your monitor. Refer to Snohomish County's browser compatibility and web site availability information. |

About the Flood Hazard map data
The map data used to represent flood hazards on this web site was obtained by Snohomish County from the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (www.fema.gov). This information (Q3 flood data) is not actively maintained by Snohomish County and is provided as a guide to understanding. This information is not official and cannot be used to determine absolute delineations of flood risk boundaries. FEMA recommends that users apply a 250-foot buffer outside the floodplain boundary line, due to the differences in map scale between flood data and background reference data. Users may refer to the official hardcopy map if a site of interest falls in or near a designated flood hazard. Official maps are available at the Customer Service Counter of the Department of Planning and Development Services, on the second floor of the Snohomish County Administration Building East located at 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, Everett, Washington, 98201. Free 30-minute parking is available under the building. Answers to FEMA's frequently asked questions about Flood Hazard Mapping are available from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) web site. The OFFICIAL shoreline environment designation maps are available for review at the Customer Support Center in the Department of Planning and Development Services on the second floor of the Snohomish County Administration East Building located at 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, Everett, Washington, 98201. Free 30-minute parking is available under the building. These maps are not surveys, nor an instrument to make definitive shoreline designation determinations. Water body features (rivers, streams, canals, etc.) have been partially revised to follow digital orthophotos and field observations by the County. The location and boundaries of environment designations have been interpreted based on geodatasets and the criteria for environment designations contained in the Shoreline Master Program. All geodatasets used to create these maps have spatial uncertainties, including this depiction of roads, waterbodies and/or shoreline features. The Rivers Channels subject to migration layer identifies the rivers and streams in Snohomish County where there is a possibility for channel migration to occur due to the forces of erosion and deposition (also referred to as the erosion hazard area). The areas adjacent to these rivers are potentially at a high risk of occupation by a river channel within next 100 years. The layer does not show the lateral extent of the channel migration zone, only the linear geographic extent where significant channel migration could occur. The detailed methodology for determining the lateral extent of the CMZ is contained in Section 2 of the Washington DNR Forest Practices Board Manual [WAC 222], adopted by reference in Section 30.62B.330(2)(a) SCC.
