Unassigned Addresses

New Buildings New addresses will be assigned to all new buildings through the building and land-use permit. Simply apply for the permit and your address will be created and entered into your permit file.

New addresses are assigned to all occupiable structures within the Anchorage Bowl and Chugiak/Eagle River area. When a property owner or developer applies for a building permit (or a land permit), we take a look at the site plan to determine access, and assign an address (or addresses, as necessary). Especially for corner lots or large tracts of land, we need to see the site plan in order to determine which street provides access or where the building and driveway entrance will be located in order to assign a good address.

Existing Buildings
To get a new address assigned to an existing building within Anchorage and Chugiak/Eagle River areas, call or visit Municipal Addressing.

You will need to provide the building location and driveway entrance information, by fax, email, or in-person visit. A site plan, or even a drawing of the site is usually helpful. There is a $75.00 fee for new address assignments. 
Notification of New Addresses
For all new addresses, we notify the US Postal Service, emergency response, all utilities, and other municipal agencies of the new assignment for their records.

Unassigned areas
For areas of the Municipality south of the Anchorage Bowl except for Girdwood, which had addresses assigned from May - Sept 2006, addresses have not yet been assigned. Assigning numerical addresses is one of the municipality's highest priorities and is a task that will be on-going in the coming months.
