Original Story

Well, it happened again today. Someone dials 911 and we cannot quickly find the address for which we were dispatched. It is kind of frustrating to find multiple driveways/ roads and several are missing or have obstructed address numbers for each.

Imagine if you called for help and the one thing that got us to your door was a good set of address numbers. Even if your numbers are perfect, what if we are delayed because your neighbor’s address numbers were missing, incomplete, or barely visible? And, what if we went to the wrong address while searching for the correct one? We can lose minutes when seconds count.

YOU can help us help YOU in an emergency by having great address numbers posted. YOU can also help us get a little further down the road when we respond on your street by ensuring YOUR numbers are effective and visible from any direction of travel.

And don’t let a neighbor drag down your neighborhood, either. If someone nearby needs some address improvements, help them get with the program soon so it benefits everyone in your area!
