Description
|
The BCA Non-Residential Inventory Extract (formerly Commercial Inventory Extract) contains a record or row for every building or part of a building in a jurisdictional or area, unless it has been omitted for privacy reasons.
Non-residential properties are assessed using different approaches, dependent on multiple factors including, for example, income generation and highest and best use. Building breakdown of floor area by use is not always collected, depending on the assessment approach. Therefore, users of this data will find some properties carry a more detailed breakdown of floor area by use than others.
Total areas of buildings are not collected for major industrial properties and any other properties valued using the ad valorem approach and therefore will not be available in this report. This may include properties like sawmills, airports, schools and utilities.
The Non-Residential Inventory Extract data is in .txt format with comma separated data and is updated quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 (or the first business day following these dates). (2023-04-04)
