Potential build site — identified from county GIS
County assessed value: land $183,100 · total $183,100 (taxes payable 2027)
Assessed value: Scott County record in the MetroGIS Regional Parcel Dataset, released Jul 20, 2026. County values are set for property tax, trail the market and phase in on newly platted lots (Minn. Stat. § 273.11, subd. 14a). Not an asking price.
Privately owned
Computed from county parcel and map data, as of October 2026. Screening only, not a survey. Sources: Met Council road centerlines (2026-10-08), Generalized Land Use 2025 and active railroads; the regional parcel dataset (2026-07-20); NWI wetlands and DNR public waters; the UMN 2015 1-m tree canopy. Elevation: the MN DNR LiDAR 1 m bare-earth elevation model (metro collection, validated October 2012), data contributed by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Walkout and lookout potential are a builder rule of thumb, not a survey.
A plain-language status — not a score. This page documents 3 facts from public records, estimates 2 more from models, relies on 7 unverified screening defaults, and lists 8 things to verify before you rely on it.
This parcel in Sand Creek Township sits in the Jordan Public Schools (ISD 717) school district. Part of the parcel is mapped in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, so flood insurance and elevation requirements likely apply. No wetlands are mapped on the parcel in screening data, though small basins can go unmapped and a delineation is still recommended before construction. On utilities, water service is undocumented and sewer service is inside the regional service area — a connection is not confirmed until the city or utility confirms it, so budget time to verify location and fees. Tree cover is substantial — most of the lot sits under canopy in the 2015 modeled estimate, so plan for clearing and tree-preservation choices. We do not yet have data on terrain, water service, and shoreland status — on this page, unknown never means "no concern."
Rules applied: Regional/state screening defaults (unverified) Some rules shown use a regional screening default — the Sand Creek Township ordinance is not yet loaded for them; verify locally before relying on any number.
Recorded, authoritative facts.
Modeled or preliminary — useful for screening, not decisions.
Professional and municipal confirmations before you build.
Written for homeowners; open “the details” on any card for the builder view and the raw measurement behind it.
Slope & terrain: not yet evaluated — unknown is not the same as no concern. no slope statistics
Builder view: Slope & terrain: no qualifying evidence in the current dataset (no slope statistics); treat as unresolved, not as clear.
Part of this parcel is mapped in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area (zone AE); flood insurance and elevation requirements likely apply — confirm with the city and a surveyor.
Builder view: FEMA zone AE (SFHA) per current NFHL data; floodplain ordinance and base flood elevation requirements apply — elevation certificate and local floodplain review required.
No mapped wetland/public-water indicators on this parcel in the current screening datasets; small or unmapped wetlands can still exist — a wetland delineation is recommended before design or purchase decisions.
Uses a regional screening default — the local ordinance is not yet loaded. Verify locally.
Builder view: No NWI/PWI overlap in current screening data; datasets under-map small basins — a wetland delineation is recommended before design or purchase decisions where soils/vegetation suggest hydrology. A 50 ft screening buffer applies (screening default).
Public utilities may be available nearby; connection location & fees require confirmation
Uses a regional screening default — the local ordinance is not yet loaded. Verify locally.
Builder view: sanitary sewer: inside the regional wastewater service area (MUSA) — membership is a planning designation, NOT a connection at the boundary; timing unknown, confirm staging with the city.
Water service: not yet evaluated — unknown is not the same as no concern. water service not documented
Builder view: Water service: no qualifying evidence in the current dataset (water service not documented); treat as unresolved, not as clear.
This parcel is in the Jordan Public Schools (ISD 717) school district per current boundary data.
Builder view: School district: Jordan Public Schools (ISD 717) — MDE boundary data; boundaries can change, so verify for enrollment decisions.
Room for a typical house: yes. This is acreage, not a single homesite. Setbacks leave about 2.9 acres buildable — far more than any house uses, so zoning is not the practical limit here. Site conditions, access, utilities and budget govern what is practical. Based on regional/state screening default (unverified) — not the local ordinance; verify with the jurisdiction setbacks; confirm your parcel's zoning.
Uses a regional screening default — the local ordinance is not yet loaded. Verify locally.
Builder view: Regulatory maximum footprint ≈ 127,434 sq ft — the legal ceiling, not a house size (setback-derived; setbacks alone allow ≈ 127,434 sq ft). Regulation is not the binding constraint at this parcel size. Based on regional/state screening default (unverified) — not the local ordinance; verify with the jurisdiction setbacks; confirm your parcel's zoning.
This lot is near a mapped public water, but its shoreland classification is not available in the current dataset — shoreland setbacks remain unresolved (never guessed); confirm with the DNR and the city.
Builder view: Within statutory shoreland distance of a public water with no available DNR management class; OHWL/bluff/impervious standards unresolved — confirm the classification before design.
This lot reads as wooded — about 51.4% of it sits under tree canopy (2015 modeled estimate). Expect real trees, and real tree-clearing decisions.
Builder view: Tree canopy ≈ 51.4% of parcel area (Wooded; bands: wooded ≥ 50%, partially wooded 20–50%). Source: 2015 UMN 1-m urban tree canopy (deciduous + coniferous classes); verify current conditions on site — clearing, storms and growth since 2015 are not reflected.
