James A. Genellie, Acting Manager

Hopkins. MN 55343
Dear Mr. Genellie:
In 1851 the territorial government of Minnesota enacted legislation to permit
filing of lots and blocks for building sites in the form of subdivision plats.
Since that time over 12,000 plats. representing inmdreds of thousands of lot& have
been filed in our county. In any human endeavo!:' er:ors and/or cmissio~ creep into
projects and the subdivision plat is no exception.
In the 1950's the 1891s1ature prcvided the surveyor a metoilS to put the public on
not.ice that there was an error in a plat am tt;' state the co!'~ect datii. OVer the
years numerous Certificates of Cor.(8ctior. have been filed. In I9'S tba legislature
provided that the amicipaH ty as well as l'!i surveyor had tc sign the CerUfi,eate of
COrrection before the county Recorder cmud accept the dOC'\.'imant for filing. 'ltlis
action provides the lWflicipality \'li.lli nctic~ but few agenciefi i)tG' abL! to tell if
the new data ia atrj better tha..'1 the old,
The purpose of this lettec- is to offer the service .of this office to provide y,)Ur
municipality with assura\'1ce that the data on .a Certifica.te of Correction is in fact
correct. we could check the data provided by t.l::\e Sl,:u.'V€lyor by cOO'ipCldng the 1"'dt\\"
data against the old. If correct we would sign the certificate 'tating the
infouetion haa been checked. we would conduct our ruview befote tt"lel certificate
is iiNbmitted to the municipality so that pas&aga throuq"n your i.Wstem wc.t.i.ld be as
expeditious a~ possible.
If this proposal is acceptable a reBolution by y{~ur 90veming c<<.tY requesting OI.U
participation wuldbe &ppropdate. This would give us. c'1uthodzation to do the
\<<)rk as part of the County's cCh"'\tinuing service t.o the municipalities ~ndtc.
contact the surveyors about the change in p:fl:X:edu'~" ii x--OU h~'l/t! iPly queations
