IF YOU ARE NEW TO OUR SITE,
THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS WILL ASSIST YOU IN DOING
YOUR RESEARCH OF OUR SURVEY RECORDS .

Once you have read through the information,
you will find the link to

If you get an error message when you have selected a map to view, it is probably because you have a "Pop-Up" Blocker turned on. You will need to turn this feature off to view our Map Images.
1. You will need a Township, Range, & Section (examples-1N10 24AA, 3S 9 05BA, etc.), then your Taxlot. You can locate this information on your Tax Statement:
Map ID: Fill in the necessary information
by using the drop down box choices
and click on "Search".
This should take you to the correct Assessment Map that will have the Survey
Records indexed on it.
Survey #: If you already have the number of
the Survey you want to look at, search for it by entering the survey number
in the "Survey #" box using the following format: Capital letter, hyphen, & 4 digits and
click on "Search". If the map only has 3 digits, you will need to add a
zero at the first of the number. Example: C-101 would be entered as
C-0101.
2.
Survey Records are identified by a letter and number combination.
Examples.....A-1234 -- B-1234 -- C-123
-- P-123. "A" & "B" numbers are Survey Maps.
"C" numbers are Condominium and Subdivision Maps. "P"
numbers are Partition Maps. References such as
5/123, 6/123, 7/123, etc. or F1-1, F2-2, F3-3, etc. are additional types of survey
information not yet available online. The F40 & F41 Maps have a link at
the bottom of this page.
3. Survey Records are listed on the maps in the areas that they pertain
to. Click
on the Survey Record you wish to view from the list to the left of the
Assessment Map This will open the map
image in a new window. Occasionally the map you would like to view will
not be in the list, in that case go to the Survey # option at the top of the
screen and enter the number,
again using the following format: Capital letter, hyphen, & 4 digits.
4. Map Images can be enlarged, for viewing, using the "+" and "–" magnifying glasses
and can be moved around to get to the appropriate area by using the "Hand" symbol.
5. Printing. If you do not have a printer large
enough to print the image to scale, and that is what you need, you can come into
our office and get a print or call the office and one can be mailed to you for
the cost of the print plus shipping and handling. There is a link to
charges for these services on our home page. When printing on your
personal printer, you will need to adjust your printer options so that you will
get the entire map. Simply choose the Page Scaling or equivalent option within your
Print parameters.
