Address Changes

The City of Fargo GIS Office has the authority to enforce the address number system that is set forth in the Property Address Data Standards. When it is determined that a person is in violation of any part of this code, the GIS Office will notify the owner of the property and/or business. Addresses may be changed when problems, such as the following, arise:

• Streets are renamed or realigned
• Address numbers are duplicated
• Address numbers are out of sequence
• Driveway locations are on corner lots
