*IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING PROPERTY ASSESSMENTS*
February 28, 2022
Our top priority is the safety of the public and our staff as we adjust to the effect COVID-19 is having on our annual re-assessment work.
The Assessor staff will continue to do do physical on-site exterior reviews of properties as we do our re-assessment. The Assessor staff will be identified with their vest and badge. We will only do exterior photos/review and will leave a door tag if the property owner is not present. It is recommended to the property owner, if we do leave a door tag, to call the office to verify any other data pertinent on your property.
**As of September 6, 2022, the Sherburne County Assessor Office is no longer the contact for reassessment and appraisal requests for Baldwin Township. Please use this link to contact your appraiser Baldwin Township Local Assessor Office

******************************************************************************
In Minnesota, property taxes provide most of the funding for local government services. Each property’s share of taxes is determined according to its value, classification (use), and the property tax levies.
Responsibilities
The Sherburne County Assessor’s Department is responsible for estimating property values and setting property classification for tax purposes. Each spring, a Notice of Valuation and Classification is sent to every property owner in Sherburne County. We address the resulting property valuation and classification concerns with property owners in person, by phone, and by letter.
Appeals
Appeals are addressed at the Local Boards of Appeal and Equalization and at the County Board of Appeal and Equalization.
Our Mission
To administer the statutes of the State of Minnesota which pertain to Real and Personal Property Assessment to the best of our ability, and in a manner which shows neither partiality nor prejudice towards any property owner, class of property or taxing jurisdiction.
