Each deed, instrument, or writing by which lands, tenements, or other realty is sold, granted, assigned, transferred, or otherwise conveyed, shall have noted upon it the tax roll parcel number. The number will be used only for administrative and procedural purposes. The number will not be proof of title and in the event of any conflicts the legal description noted upon the document shall govern. The validity of a document shall not be affected by the fact that a parcel number is erroneous or omitted, and there shall be no liability attaching to any person for an error in the parcel number or for omitting the parcel number. The Recorder shall not accept any deed, instrument, or conveyance for recording unless the tax roll parcel number has been noted upon it. A parcel which has been created by the division of an existing parcel and which at the time of recording has no separate parcel number shall have noted upon it the words "portion of" and the parcel number of the parcel from which it was created.
