Staff outlines plan to assign addresses for accessory dwellings, flags 911 concerns
Summary
Planning staff said they have identified about 50 accessory dwelling cases needing addressing and are coordinating with USPS and 911 to avoid emergency‑response conflicts; staff expect to complete address assignments within about a month but noted some permitting and database work could take longer.
Staff told the commission they have been working on assigning addresses to accessory dwellings — roughly 50 instances — and that the county coordinated with the postal service and 911 to ensure site points and numbering will not disrupt emergency response. Staff explained the complexity when accessory units become primary through split or permitting changes and said the office will triage assignments as building permits and splits occur.
Staff estimated the address work could be completed "before next month" if no complications arise, but warned that integrating the changes with permitting and billing systems could take longer. Staff said they will continue interdepartmental coordination so 911 site points and mortgage/permit records remain consistent.
