• How much do you charge for assigning an address? There is no charge.
• How do you decide if a road name is acceptable or not? We prefer unique names of roads to make sure there are no duplications in the county. Duplication is not recommended because of the difficulty of road identification in an emergency situation and the general confusion it creates. To reserve a street name please call Vince Loveday.

• What is enhanced 911 service? Enhanced 911 service provides the dispatcher with the your phone number, address/house number, and the name of the person the phone is registered to.
• What are your guidelines for house numbers? We recommend that you have your house numbers prominently displayed on your house as well as your mailbox for easy identification in case of emergency. In case there are multiple dwellings please have the correct number on your structure, this makes it easier for emergency personnel to see and :identify. Most mailboxes should use three-inch reflective numbers or larger and house numbers are personal preference. Keep in mind that a house number can save valuable time in locating and providing emergency services to you and your loved ones.
