Some do. The only one of New York's that crosses the state line is Akwesasne, which is not recognized as a unified entity by any government but its own. (The Federal government calls the portion in New York the 'Saint Regis Indian Reservation'.) The hierarchical point is that every point in the state is in exactly one City, Town or Indian Reservation and no City or Town claims an Indian Reservation as part of its domain. No Town crosses a county line, and the instances where a City or Indian Reservation does can be counted on the fingers of one hand. -- 73 de ke9tv/2, Kevin _______________________________________________ Tagging mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/tagging
