Land Records Mapping Specialist

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes description of duties (primary focus, secondary focus). No explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not include those headings. We can have sections: About the role (maybe a brief summary), Responsibilities (list of duties), Requirements (minimum requirements), Qualifications (maybe preferred experience and special requirements), Skills (maybe abilities). We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent. Remove boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Also remove duplicated lines (the first two sentences repeated). Also remove "This job description should not be interpreted as all-inclusive..." etc. Also remove "How to Apply" etc. Also remove "Pre-employment Drug Screening And Background Check Is Required" etc. Also remove "McDowell County is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also remove "Applications Are Available..." etc. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. We need to use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

  for prose. We need to decide sections. Let's extract content: Primary focus: Provide responsible administrative work involving use of public ownership records to produce, update and maintain county's Land Records.

We also have abilities listed under Minimum Requirements: ability to operate a computer, drive a vehicle, maintain effective working relationships, work outside. We could treat those as Skills. We need to avoid duplication: The description repeats some sentences; we should consolidate. We need to output sections only if they have real specific content. Let's propose sections: - About the role: maybe a brief summary paragraph combining primary and secondary focus? But we already have Responsibilities section for duties. About the role could be a short paragraph describing the position purpose. The posting does not have a separate "About the role" heading, but we can create one using the primary focus description as prose. However we must not invent content; we can use the primary focus description as About the role. But that content is also part of responsibilities. Might be okay to have About the role as a short paragraph summarizing the role: "Performs specialized technical work involving the use of public ownership records and digital editing of parcel maps used in maintaining the county’s Land Records program, and Geographic Information System." That's from the first sentence (duplicate). We can use that. But we need to ensure we don't repeat content unnecessarily; but it's okay to have some overlap as long as we preserve all info. However we should avoid duplication of same sentences in multiple places? The instruction: "Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail." It doesn't forbid duplication, but better to avoid redundancy. We could put the primary focus description in About the role, and then Responsibilities list the detailed tasks. That seems fine. Responsibilities: list of duties (both primary and secondary). We'll create a

  with each duty as
  • . Need to capture all tasks. Let's extract duties list: From primary focus: - Researching, interpreting and analyzing various legal documents such as deeds, surveys, civil actions, and special proceedings to update ownership information in the tax office data system. - Utilizing computerized data entry equipment, and custom programs to manage and update land records. - Provide essential assistance to the public, industry professionals, other county departments and agencies, and tax office staff by offering support in areas such as real estate, property location, tax programs and mapping. - Assisting and collaboration with property owners or industry professionals, involving research into deeds, wills, survey maps, and other records to verify or clarify information as needed. - Complete Bond Justifications, Deed Certifications, responsible for collecting data and completing reports required by the NCDOR and other organizations. - Assists property owners and/or their legal representatives concerning tax exemption/exclusion/deferment programs; explaining the programs including the positive aspects, potential liability, billings, and statutory requirements. - Process applications, collection of data, researching, verifying and analyzing crop progress & condition reports along with other documents to determine parcel eligibility for property tax exemption/exclusion/deferment programs. - Appraises and applies tax exemption/exclusion/deferment value in compliance with the adopted schedule of values. - Performs field review visits of parcels to determine compliance and eligibility for programs. - Determines loss of eligibility, calculates taxes due, and notifies landowners. - Conducts required annual compliance audits of parcels receiving tax exemption/exclusion/deferment.

We should also include maybe "Provide essential assistance..." etc. Now Requirements: Minimum Requirements (as prose or list). We'll use

Skills: maybe the abilities listed under Minimum Requirements (operate computer, drive vehicle, maintain relationships, work outside). Could also include other skills like data entry, GIS editing, etc. But we already have those in Responsibilities. To avoid thin sections, we could combine Skills with Requirements or omit Skills if not enough distinct content. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could have About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (minimum), Qualifications (preferred + special). That's four sections. Skills may be thin; we could omit. We must not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule as they are not present. Now we need to output HTML fragment with

    headings and

    or

    • . We need to ensure we don't include any boilerplate like EEO, application instructions, etc. Let's craft:
