About Janet: I was hired in 1980 as an Address-o-graph Operator. Since then I have been named Tax Lister, Mapper, but I call myself the Real Property Lister.
About the office: The Price County Real Property Listing Department is a division of the Register of Deeds Office, with the Register of Deeds as the supervisor. There is one full time position within the Real Property Listing Department, and is a member of the Land Information Committee.
Responsibilities include performing all duties set forth in Chapter 70.09 of the WI Statues, along with updating work rolls, printing all of the State mandated reports; assessment rolls, tax rolls, tax bills, company tax receipts, etc. We also enter mill rate data from the municipal clerks and help them when needed. We have public access terminals for the private and public sectors to use. Searches can be done by: last name, property address, computer number, and by legal description. Everything that is in the assessment and tax data base can be accessed and printed out on hard copy if needed. Price County is testing a website that has all this data plus all parcels maps and air photos, along with zoning data and anything that other departments would like to make available. We provide lists, descriptions and maps when requested. Also, we print all personal property reports relating to the assessment and taxation process. We notify the Zoning Department of all land divisions and the DNR for ownership changes in the Managed Forest Land Programs and land conservation for ownership changes in the farm land preservation program. All old work rolls are microfilmed and put into microfiche form for archive purposes.
Price County has been completely parcel mapped since the mid 90's. The County chose not to establish all corners so we digitized the base map from USGS Quadrangle maps. From this base map we COGO in all survey data filed and recorded in the county. The Land Information Committee is using grant monies to remonument corners using GPS and the County Coordinate System. This information is also put into the base map. I incorporate the parcel maps in my work rolls and also have a separate book for purchases by the public. The parcels maps are kept up by the Real Property Lister. Price County produces a county plat book in-house which is also a duty of the Lister.
