City of Peterborough Reminds Residents about the myAddress Verification Tool

Peterborough, ON – Residents can use the interactive online tool, myAddress Verification, to quickly confirm officially recognized addresses within the City of Peterborough.  

Accurate municipal addresses play a critical role in emergency response, helping first responders locate homes and businesses quickly and safely when a call for service is made. 

myAddress Verification allows residents to check their property address and confirm all units associated with a single address are properly recorded. The tool can be found at peterborough.ca/mapping. 

Information maintained through myAddress Verification is shared with key external partners, including 911 Emergency Services, Canada Post and Hydro One, helping ensure consistency across essential services. 

The tool was developed by the City of Peterborough’s Geomatics/Mapping Division. It supports the City’s Municipal Address By-law, which establishes a standardized approach to assigning and modifying municipal addresses.  

When changes occur or new addresses are created, the City issues Address Notification Memos to inform stakeholders and property owners. Residents can search for Address Notification Memos issued since 2004 using the Search Address Memo tool. 

Residents are also encouraged to explore the City’s full range of online mapping resources by visiting peterborough.ca/maps.
