About your office:
The Polk County Property Listing Department is made
up of me, myself and I and is located within the County
Treasurer’s Office and under it’s supervision. The
treasurer’s office has three full time employees consisting
of the Treasurer, one deputy and myself. The office is
strategically located between the Land Information
Office/Zoning and the Register of Deeds. For the most part
this works well, as my time seems split by the use of the
other departments. As the Lister, I handle approximately
4000 transfers per year. In 2001 we put on 342 CSM’s, 15
plats and countless splits. The last count, we had over
41,500 parcels, made up of 36 municipalities (24 townships
and 12 city/villages).
Currently all of our mapping is being done in the Land
Information Office by it’s staff of one full time mapper and
one GIS specialist. The software is ESRI Arc GIS and Autocad.
They are primarily working on the parcel maps for the county
as well as creating GIS. |
About your county:
Polk County has had contined growth over the past 5 years.
2004, there were over 4,200 transfer's; 378 CSM's; and 20
plats creating 1,567 new parcels. Polk County has 36
municipalites (24 townships, 10 villages and 2 cities).
Polk County is located an hour and a half from
Minneapolis/St. Paul and Lake Superior on the Upper St.
Croix River of Northwest Wisconsin. It is 917 square miles
of rivers and streams, 200+ lakes, miles of public trails
and rolling family farms. Many of Polk County's reisdents
commute to the Twin Cities for their employment, while 90%
of the lake properties are second homes for neighboring
Minnesotans. Polk County has seen tremendous increase in
growth due to our close proximity to a major metropolitan
area, and our great availability of land for recreation and
development. |
