Addi tional Information
The City does not record lot line adjustment maps. Therefore, you should request
that the Lane County Department of Assessment and Taxation combine the property being
transferred into the same tax lot as the recipient 1ot. The recipient lot shoul-d
then be considered as a consolidated single land unit for tax purposes.
