[OSM-talk-ie] New Local Electoral Areas 2018

[Brian Hollinshead]

It is four years since the last change in LEAs.
Last Summer a boundary commission issued new proposals and in December new
Statutory Instruments were issued. I learnt today of the references for the
four Dublin areas.
SI 614 2018 Dublin City
SI 615 2018 DLR
SI 616 2018 Fingal
SI 633 2018  South Dublin.

see http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/eli/2018/si/615/made/en/print

Some areas have remained unchanged while others have had EDs moved from one
LEA to a neighbouring one. For instance Dun Laoghaire LEA lost
Foxrock-Beechpark ED which was moved to Blackrock LEA.

I have today added these to OSM and before adding any others I would like
feedback on the Tagging I used. please see
openstreetmap.org/relation/9316769 and 770.

Where an LEA remains unchanged how should we change the tagging to reflect
both 2014 and 2018 valid dates and the two sources SI 46 2014 and SI 615
2018.

I welcome your advices.
