| Currentness Reference | The boundaries for the MPOSC district are based on current Metropolitan Council Districts, which were enacted in 2003. The communities included in each district are current as of the time period of content date above. The city and township boundaries used to create this dataset were derived from the metro wide city and township boundary dataset described at http://www.datafinder.org/metadata/CountiesAndCTUs.htm That dataset is updated on a quarterly basis. This dataset is then recreated quarterly from those boundaries. |
