What if I need a new 911 address?

If you are building a home in Cherokee County, you will be issued a 9-1-1 address when you receive your building permit. If you are using a contractor, make sure to ask him for your address when he obtains your permit. It is your responsibility to notify 911 addressing of any information changes including your address, telephone number or ownership.
