I don't know. "Cities are neither part of nor subordinate to towns except for the city of Sherrill, which for some purposes is treated as if it were a village of the town of Vernon." If you're going to use 7 and 8, wouldn't 7 be city/town, and 8 be village? (Or, IMO more consistent with the rest of the US, 8=city/town and 9=village)? _______________________________________________ Talk-us mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
