I posted this in the Land Records forum a while back, but no replies. Maybe better luck here. I've been running some practice cases migrating our data to the parcel fabric, and ran into a question about topology.
Our data is in two separate polygon layers - parcels and subdivisions. Parcels in subdivisions should be within the subdivision, and share a border when appropriate. I can run and validate a topology on the existing data to make sure this is correct. So far, so good.
My question is how to maintain this after creating lines from the polygons and then running the Curves and Lines Tool. I've been using a suggested practice of recreating the polygon layer from the lines after the Curves and Line tool, which ensures that the polygons and lines match topologically. This works fine on individual feature types, but wouldn't that workflow result in errors for parcels correctly fitting into subdivisions when the Curves and Lines tool makes different adjustments for parcels than subdivisions? Then I'd have to fix errors for the polygon and line parcel class.
Am I thinking about this incorrectly, or is there a way to deal with this issue that I'm not seeing? Thanks. Also, how do you delete a thread? I don't see options for that anywhere.
