Addressing Project

Whitfield County's Address Location Project is currently underway and will directly affect City of Dalton residents now through early June.  Field survey crews from GeoComm will be in the city with a GPS device to identify and record addresses.  The technicians may approach homes to survey residents.  If residents are unavailable, technicians will leave an information sheet and a survey for residents to complete.  Information provided by residents will assist the completion of the Addressing Location Project.

The purpose of this project is to locate every structure in Whitfield County to aid in emergency response and correct potential errors.  The most immediate result will be more accurate dispatch of emergency responders to medical and other emergency calls.
