On April 28, 2009, the Crow Wing County Board approved the restructure of the County Land Department to Natural Resource Management, a division of the Land Services Department.

The County Board of Commissioners of Crow Wing County, Minnesota, assign to the Land Services Supervisor the authority and duties of county land commissioner as set forth in Minnesota Statutes, under the supervision of the Land Services Director.   Management is based upon professional natural resource management practices and techniques, Minnesota Statutes relating to the management of tax forfeited lands and County Board policies and directives. Some of the major activities include: Timber Harvest Program, Recreation, Land Sales, Land Exchanges, Leases, Forest Development Projects and Urban Management. A variety of aerial photographs, forest vegetation maps and topographical maps are available for viewing. The Natural Resource Management Staff welcomes your questions relating to County administered tax forfeited lands.
