The data was collected at the platted block level, defined as the smallest identifiable block of contiguous lots within a development phase. Plat books and parcel numbers reflect the block identifier. This is the lowest level of data collection and reporting in the system - individual platted parcels are not identified. From this level, the data summates up the hierarchy as follows: - Plat Block ---> Phase ---> Development ---> Entire City. Sources of the data include the 1990 City Tax Rolls, the City Building Department's plat books and Building Department permit records. Data was cumulated for the entire City for an April 1, 1990 value and is updated biannually. To arrive at population estimates, person-per-household (PPH) and occupancy rate factors (OCR) are applied to the dwelling counts. These factors were obtained from the 1990 Census preliminary report and through interpolation from Seminole County data for 1988 and are sorted by Census Tract. Within a particular Census Tract, all dwelling units have the same PPH and OCR factors. This is greater sensitivity than most jurisdictions utilize, as many apply a single PPH or OCR factor to the entire jurisdiction. The population estimates are calculated as per the following example: Bear Creek Estates DUs = 56 PPH = 3.03 Population estimate = 56 X 3.03 X .95 OCR = .95 161 residents. In a case where the dwelling unit count has been adjusted to reflect new information about a particular development phase, the population estimate will adjust accordingly. An adjustment was made in early June 1991 in the North Orlando Townsite 4th Addition phase increasing the number of dwellings from 48 to 242 across eight platted blocks. - ,<..-....
