Why do I have two parcel numbers when I purchased one property?

There may be several reasons:

  • The property was split by a tax rate line. Tax rate lines are established by the State Board of Equalization. If the property in question is less than 45,000 square feet, or less than $50,000 in value, we can combine the parcels.
  • A road or water feature may divide the parcels or the parcels are on two different map pages and we cannot combine them.
