This dataset delineates the village boundaries for Nova Scotia.

Local service district polygons are a graphical representation of the local service district boundaries as defined in the Local Service Districts Regulation - Municipalities Act with an associated LSD place name attribute.

Legally defined __Municipal__ polygons were drawn from metes and bounds descriptions as written in Letters Patent for Municipalities in the province of British Columbia. In the event of a discrepancy in the data, the metes and bounds description will prevail. Although the boundaries were drawn based on the legal metes and bounds descriptions, they may differ from how regional districts and their member municipalities and electoral areas currently view and/or manage their boundaries. Where discrepancies are noted, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs (the custodian) enters into discussion with the local governments whose boundaries are affected. In order to effect a change to the boundary, Cabinet approval is required. This is done through an Order in Council (OIC). While discrepancies to administrative boundaries are being resolved, boundaries may be adjusted on an ongoing basis until the requested changes are completed. The OIC_YEAR and OIC_NUMBER fields indicate the year that the boundary was passed under OIC and its associated number. The AFFECTED_ADMIN_AREA_ABRVN identifies the administrative areas that are affected by the OIC. See all of the administrative areas currently in the [__Administrative Boundaries Management System (ABMS)__](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/12f0fd64-94d5-422a-832e-6627a2a01702). The complimentary [point dataset](https://catalogue.data.gov.bc.ca/dataset/e50b6560-0549-41a6-8035-6b828066692e) that defines the administrative areas is also available.

Municipal boundaries are created by Order in Council as per the Municipal Act. Each Municipality has it's own Official Community Plan (OCP) and Zoning Bylaw. Changes to the OCP or Zoning Bylaw are processed by 3rd reading of Bylaws. Distributed from GeoYukon by the Government of Yukon .

Part of the Nova Scotia Topographic Database, the delimiter lines are obtained from various sources which could include Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, Property Records Database, or Parks Canada. These areas are generally administrative Boundaries. Delimiter Line feature codes and their descriptions are provided with the download in a NSTDB feature code table.
