Active Parcel —
Also known as an “legal parcel," active parcels are defined parcels that can be sold, leased and financed separately from other parcels, a process which is kicked off with a public notice (you may have seen these signs hanging around town). These parcels are processed by the Public Works department and sales or assessments include participation from the San Francisco Assessor's Office.
-
Approved Valid Address —
These addresses are proposed by an applicant, vetted by San Francisco’s Department of Building Inspection (DBI) and then created by DBI. They are associated with a Legal Parcel and are recorded in the EAS for use by DBI and other agencies.

Enterprise Addressing System, Also Known as the EAS —
The San Francisco Enterprise GIS Program's (SFGIS) Enterprise Addressing System (EAS) is an internal web application that allows general City employees and Department of Building Inspection (DBI) Central Permit Bureau staff to create, edit, query and retire the City's legal, numbered thoroughfares and valid addresses. Only addresses approved and validated by DBI are maintained in this system. The EAS and SF’s GIS team are hosted within the Department of Technology (DT).

Taxable Parcel — A taxable parcel is one in which a line can be placed on the City tax roll for property tax purposes — an annual process for a Legal Parcel that can be sold, rented or financed separately from those around it. For condos, the San Francisco Assessor’s Office requires an additional grant deed for a parcel to be considered taxable and legal.
