Abstract
This polygon data layer represents zoning for Racine County, Wisconsin in 2000. The dataset was originally published by the Racine County Public Works and Development Services in 2002.[This data set consists of digital map files containing zoning district boundaries covering all Towns and selected Villages in Racine County. The zoning district polygon features are identified by County zoning district codes and Village zoning codes where applicable. The files were prepared at one-inch-equals-200-feet scale, with each digital map file covering one U. S. Public Land Survey System section. The original digital map files are in GenaMap format and are maintained in GenaMap. The GenaMap files are converted to ESRI shape file format for distribution purposes.]
Purpose
This layer is intended for reference and mapping purposes and may be used for basic applications such as viewing, querying, and map output production or to provide a basemap to support graphical overlays and analysis with other spatial data. [This data set was collected as a foundational element for the Racine County Land Information System. The data set provides zoning district information to be used for local and regional planning purposes.]
Supplemental Information
Augmented original metadata with AGSL specific elements. For official metadata please see RacineCoountyZoning_shape.htm.

Description
[The features in this data set were collected by interpretation of hardcopy zoning district boundary maps obtained from the Racine County Department of Planning and Development. The zoning district boundary lines were extracted from digital cadastral map files with reference to the hardcopy zoning maps to insure coincidence of zoning boundaries with parcel boundaries where necessary. The staff of the Southeastern Wisconsin Regional Planning Commission conducted a review of the completeness, accuracy, and integrity of the digital map files. The staff of the Racine County Department of Planning and Development reviewed hardcopy plots of the digital map files to insure the correct location and identification of the zoning district polygons.]
