Altoona is a city in Eau Claire County, Wisconsin. The Census Bureau puts its internal point at 44.799963, -91.439585 and its land area at 5.16 square miles. Septic permitting and record keeping happen at the county level, not the city level, which is why every figure below is attributed to the county and linked back to the county page it came from.

We have not yet collected septic documents from Eau Claire County, Wisconsin, so for a Altoona property the county's own file is currently the only route. This page is about getting you to it, not about pretending we hold something we do not. The county is genuinely mixed: 8,136 of 32,056 classified parcels are on septic and the rest are sewered. Which side of that line a Altoona address falls on is worth establishing before anything else. The county publishes a records portal, but reaching the documents needs an account or a login, so budget for that step rather than expecting an open search.
