Two things to try.  My guess is the latter is the real issue.

 

1)      Add a TOLERANCE 0 to the layer definition in the mapfile since
it is a polygon layer.

2)      Your layer name in the mapbook doesn't match your layer name in
the mapfile. 

 

See changes below.

I have been scouring past emails from the list and can't seem to find a
solution to my issue.  I have added my own parcel layer and have been
succesful in having the identify tool work exactly how I want it.
However, if I add another layer and want to identify that layer, all
that is returned is the ground coordinates of the click.  Below is the
pertinient information.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
