Every year the County of Newell conducts General Property Assessment inspections for all properties located within our boundaries. The map illustrates the focus area for the 2026 inspection, with additional inspections as needed. The purpose of these inspections is to update Property Assessment information.

You may see our assessor in your yard to take pictures, measure buildings, and might even knock on your door. If the Assessor has any follow up questions, a Request for Property Information form will be emailed or mailed to the registered owners.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Kevin Halsted at 403-794-2304.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
