I have a client that works for a city. She thinks that the primary ID for parcels should be the situs address, and not the APN, because the assessor can change the apn to encompass several parcels at the will of the property owner. She says that the situs address is really the only information that is the legal name of the property.
Is this true? For those of you that work for cities, what is your primary id for parcels?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
