Process of Dividing Land
The division of land in Blue Earth County is not always as simple as creating a new property line. Often times a survey is required and in some instances a subdivision plat is required to properly proceed with the splitting of an individual piece of property.
Subdivision plats and lot splits are taken before the
Blue Earth County Planning Commission in the form of a public hearing. The Planning Commission makes a formal recommendation to the
Blue Earth County Board of Commissioners. The Board of Commissioners take final action on the request.
Contacting the County
Due to the complexity of lot splits and subdivisions, please contact the Blue Earth County Property and Environmental Resources Department for more information regarding your specific property or general questions you may have regarding the division of properties in Blue Earth County.
