Traditionally, the
Beacon™ web portal has been a primary destination for parcel information. At the county level, there is an ever increasing demand to view more types of data. Citizens not only want parcel information, they want agricultural information associated with the property. Beacon™ allows for easy viewing of both types of information for citizens and county employees.
On the Beacon™ tab options, you will notice a “Soil Report” tab. This tab displays information related to soil types and productivity of the property. A prospective buyer can use this information to quickly access the value of a property before an auction or possible cash rent situations. If the county has
Agland™, the soil information will be updated daily to Beacon™ to ensure the most accurate possible for the end-user.
