Municipal Addressing

Having a clear and consistent address system helps everyone — from emergency responders finding your home in a crisis to service providers delivering utilities and local services.

Our goal is to make sure every building and occupied unit has its own unique address that’s easy to find and identify. A consistent addressing system keeps our community safe, connected, and running smoothly. Municipalities are responsible for keeping these addresses accurate and up to date.

It's not just a number: It can save your life

To obtain an address or request an address change, please contact the Geomatics and Mapping Team by email (gis@peterborough.ca)or by phone at 705-742-7777 ext. 1678.

• Requests for a change of address related to 9-1-1 standards are completed free of charge.
• Requests for a change of address not related to 9-1-1 standards are subject to a $60 fee.
