Parcel Data

The 'zipped' database file below is an Access database file that contains ALL the tabular information that is publicly available and displayed on our 'Parcel Information' system - everything from owners, addresses, land details, building details, sales, permits, etc. The database tables can, of course, be analyzed and queried in the Microsoft Access application, and individual tables can also be opened in Microsoft Excel. Also, for GIS analysis, tables from this database file can be joined to the Parcels GIS shapefile below for including additional parcel data.
