Using the WinGIS Property Search
| Enter a property's address, minus street descriptions such as "Drive"(Dr) or "Lane(Ln)". For example, 404 W. Elm St would be "404 elm".
Enter a property's pin with or without dashes. For example, 1234567890 or 12-34-567-890. Always keep in mind, the more specific the search
the fewer the results. For example (when searching for parcel numbers) 1234567890 should return one result since it is an actual pin number, while
1234567 should return all parcel numbers that start with those 7 digits. Same principle applies for addresses. 11380 Main (unless of course, there is a 11380 N. Main and S. Main)
will return single result, while 113 Main will return
all addresses with 113 and Main in them. |
Search Results
Results from your search will appear to the right of the search box. Each record will contain the property's parcel number and address as well as options to zoom to that location on that map, view parcel details or print.
Printing
Each result of your search has a
"Printable Map" link. This option opens a pop up window with an areal image (not a map that can be zoomed in or out, or panned in any direction) as well as
parcel details.
Or, you can use the
Print option under the
File menu in your browser. This will simply print everything
on the page.
