Community Health Needs Assessment


We are working again on collecting data for our Community Health Needs Assessment. This is our second time working together (Sanford Mayville, Sanford Hillsboro, Traill District Health Unit, and Steele County Public Health) collecting this data. It needs to be done every few years. 

This data is very important so we can see where our priority health needs are, and work together to develop a plan to meet these needs. The more surveys we collect the better! Thank you. Contact Brittany Ness for a paper copy of the survey or have questions. 
Office: 701-524-2060

Property Appraisal Information - Vanguard Update:


Vanguard reps are done with the residential data collection at this time. (December 21, 2017) They will return back in the Spring of 2018 to start on Commercial property data collection and finish up the last few Residential property stragglers. BUT, as of now, they are done with their data collection for a couple months. The basic timeline is as follows:
 

  • Spring of 2018: Commercial/Industrial/Grain Elevators will have data collectors come out and ask to see the property/tour the property/do data collections

 

  • Early Fall of 2018: Review teams come out and go over each parcel of property (will review from the road, will not be asking for entry into properties) to do their quality assurance/control

 

  • Feb 1, 2019: valuations will be available for review for residents, township boards of equalization, etc


Thank you ALL for your understanding throughout this process. More to come at a later date, but have a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!!!

Please contact Ben Gates with any questions.
