  Address Markers      
   
 

Make sure emergency personnel can find your home!

 

 

 

In an emergency could local police, fire or emergency medical services         find your home?

The answer is YES!..... Only if your address is clearly marked, and your address marker is located at your property access road or driveway unobstructed from their view.

You can make sure responders find your home by purchasing a uniform address marker recognized by Grant County Area Emergency Personnel.    The best part is it only costs $5.
