When is an Address Assignment Permit Required?
Whenever you are either proposing an address change for an existing property, or proposing original addresses for a new property, an Address Assignment Permit is required.
How does this process help me?
The address assignment permit accomplishes many functions that help both you and the City. This permit process ensures your house will be easily found in case of a 911 emergency because the addressing plan is reviewed to ensure the proposed addressing makes sense in relation to nearby properties and streets. After the review process is complete the city also sends out address change notifications on your behalf to all affected parties, including Post Office, Fire Dept, etc.
How do I get the Permit?
Please submit a completed Address Assignment Permit Application included in the Address Assignment Handout, which also contains a detailed list of all other actions and documents required for initial submittal to the Engineering Division. As with all other permits issued by Engineering, Authorization from the Planning Division is required before Engineering can accept any permit submittal as indicated on the permit application.Related Fees and Deposits
No fees are due upon application submittal. Upon Permit Issuance, processing fees of $292.00 per address involved in the change request are due.
