Box 490 Elk River, MN 55330 RE: Sherbume County Parcel Mapping Dear Ms. McPherson; I am writing this letter to follow-up our phone conversation about the County's schedule for parcel mapping. In review, prior to 1996, we completed parcel mapping in all sections of Elk River except sections 32, 33, 34 and east of TH 169 in 27, of T33N, and sections 14, 24 and 23 of T32N. This information was provided to the City. However, due to demands on staff and lack of GIS development by the County for many years, the areas that were completed were not updated. As the county developed its GIS strategy, the County Board set priorities. It was decided to complete the townships next, especially in the areas along TH 10 and TH 169. We have completed Haven, Livonia and Baldwin Townships. Blue Hill and Orrock Townships will be under contract soon. Big Lake Township is being completed internally, as time permits (not including the City of Big Lake). We will then begin to update and finish the City of Elk River internally. Our goal for this is by the end of 2002. This is dependent on how much plat checking work is needed county wide, since the same staff must do this also. Becker Township will be completed by contract this month. The City of Becker supplied us with valuable information to help complete that along with the township parcels. We are planning to contract Clear Lake, Palmer and Santiago Townships in 2002 for completion by the end of 2002 also. When that is accomplished, we plan to keep the parcel maps up to date as new plats come in, including those
