How do I find information on easements or private access roads?

Land Records does not map easements in GIS. Easements are only viewable in our GIS Web Map if included in a survey record, such as a map of survey or CSM. Researching recorded documents in the Register of Deeds office is where the search can be conducted; a title search can assist with this process.

This 2021 WI state statute provides information and clarification on the repair and maintenance of private roads: https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2021/related/acts/99
