The easements are a work very much in progress. If you are interested in a particular area, send a request to sprattgis@gmail.com and it will be prioritized. Otherwise, old easements are created/updated fairly randomly.
Fields
OBJECTID_1, Shape, Shape.area, Shape.len - system fields
OBJECTID, CODGIS_GIS, PERIMETER, EASE2_ EASE2_ID - unused clutter
BASEMAP_ - I think it's supposed to be the label used on the basemap for the easement, haven't been updating it though
Date_edite - date of last edit to the feature
TYPE, Type1, Type2, Type3 - Codes for the easement purposes such as Utility -> UTIL, Drainage -> DRAIN. Try to use an existing code.
TYPE_OF_DO - Type of document that describes the easement, e.g. EASEMENT, PLAT, WARRANTY DEED. I had been using this for the consolidated/readable description.
TYPE_OF__1 - Where I'm putting consolidated/readable description now e.g. "Public Access, Firelane & Public Utility". Only 45 characters, which is sometimes a problem. If the layer is ever cleaned up, double that at least.
DOCNUM - City's code for the document, often looks like "A-123-4". I don't know how to actually use this number to find documents. I've been putting county clerk document numbers in this field, but those should really to in INSTRUME_1 instead.
MONTH_FILE, DATE_FILED, YEAR_FIL_1 - Date the document was filed.
VOLUMEA, PAGEA - For looking up the document. For documents with a cabinet/page, VOLUMEA will be 'Cab X'
GRANTOR, GRANTORA, GRANTEEA - The people giving up and receiving the easement rights. I don't know if there's a difference between the first two or if GRANTORA is just for holding an extra name.
INSTRUME_1 - County clerk's document number, good for finding the document. You also need to know the year since this number starts over each year
NOTES - no clue
Finding documents
Go to http://216.60.44.147/TX/Denton/default.aspx and under Search Criteria at the top you probably want either Document search or Volume Search.
Possible changes
Change PUEs (public utility) to just UTIL. "public", if stated, can go in the TYPE_OF__1 readable description field.
