An Erie County home-property question often starts with a map, but it should not end there. Erie County GIS says On-Map can search tax parcel data, view aerial photography and Pictometry, and create custom maps. Parcels as an On-Map layer, and Real Property Tax Services says tax maps show property lines, rights of way, dimensions, acreage, streams and lake boundaries, special district lines, and Section-Block-Lot information. The practical route is the map to frame questions about a fence, driveway, stream, easement, or district charge.
Then verify the answer with the deed, survey, assessor, clerk record, or tax office before spending money.
For Erie County, let the record lead. Use Erie County GIS: Internet Mapping for the public starting point, then keep the exact parcel or GIS, search date, and identifying number with the file. Keep the office name with the file too: Erie County GIS. If the answer affects money, title, access, a permit, a license, or a deadline, that name keeps the next call from starting cold. Erie County parcel or GIS paperwork is less fussy when the address, parcel, citation, account, or application number is written down early.
