I happened across an import of Fresno castradal data from mid-2010 in the Fresno area. http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=36.77&lon=-119.81&zoom=15 is the general area but I haven't fully explored the extents. For a view of the data, see http://maps.paulnorman.ca/imports/review/fresno.png
The biggest problem with this import is that it's impossible to download any reasonably-sized area of Fresno for editing, because of how the landuse polygons end at every street and alley. It's even worse in the suburbs where the streets curve, adding many nodes to each way.
(By the way, the word is cadastral, not castadral. And I see nothing wrong with using such data as part of a semi-manual process of creating larger landuse polygons for neighborhoods, and commercial strips surrounding highways. See Orlando, FL for a (mostly fully-manual) example of how this works.)
