The county has 20 working days to review a submittal. Submittals received between 8:00 a.m. Monday and 5:00 p.m. Friday are reviewed within 20 working days starting the following Monday. Holidays may extend this. If a review finishes early, the documents are placed in the outbox before the 20-day period ends.

An Examining Land Surveyor fee of $175 applies to each review, including each resubmittal. A separate county assessment fee also applies and depends on whether the survey or plat is exempt or non-exempt. Both fees are submitted together. Call the Plat Room at 406-758-5510 to confirm current fees for your submittal.
