Description: <DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>A 1998 archive of county precincts for Jefferson County, Colorado.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The couty precinct is a seven-digit code. That code conforms to the following format:</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>DIGIT 1: FEDERAL HOUSE (CONGRESSIONAL) DISTRICT</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>DIGITS 2-3: STATE SENATE DISTRICT </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>DIGITS 4-5: STATE HOUSE DISTRICT</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>DIGITS 6-7: UNIQUE PRECINCT IDENTIFIER (PER COLUMNS 1-5)</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>As an example, precinct 6302506 is the 6th unique precinct serving the combination of the 6th Congressional district, 30th State Senate district, and 25th State House district.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>County precinct data, along with all core jurisdictional data pertinent to elections, was maintained in a GIS production database by IT Development via specialized tools. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Source data was the Geocode coverage which contained polygonal data to which jurisdictional attributes were attached. Geocode was an atomic-level polygonal coverage, by which we mean each polygon feature carried the core political data (county precinct {with federal house, state house and state senate districts embedded within}, city code {municipal status}, city ward, city precinct, commissioner district, regional transportation district {RTD}, traffic impact fee area {TIFA}, south jeffco local improvement district) used by the Elections Office in the determination of ballot styles. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Whenever editing to Geocode geometry occurred or whenever Geocode political atttribution was edited, Geocode was dissolved for each core political component (column) by nightly enterprise processing. In this case, CountyPrecinct results from a dissolve of Geocode's CPCNT column. All derivatives, like CountyPrecinct, were then re-freshed in the County's spatial data warehouse.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Data is in State Plane Grid Coordinates, Colorado Central Zone, NAD83 (US feet). </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
