Can I create my own address number by picking a close address number to my current number or add an alphanumeric letter to my address for an additional residence or business on my property?
No. If you are planning a new structure or addition on your property, consult with Permits and Inspections for allowable uses and types of structures that can be constructed. The address assigned by Frederick County is your official address and may not be altered unless by official processes.
