The Rutherford County Addressing Department is responsible for assigning new house numbers and ordering and maintaining road signs. Any questions regarding house numbers and/or road signs should be directed to the Addressing Department.
How do I obtain an address?
Rutherford County does not address vacant lots. When you are ready to build or add a manufactured home you must get a building permit. Once the building permit is issued, a driveway cut, and construction started, an address will be assigned. The Addressing Department must be able to determine where the actual site will be based on new construction and a clearly marked driveway.

How do I obtain a building permit?
1. First come to the Addressing Department located in the Assessor's Office in the lower portion of the Rutherford County Court House. Here you will get a Pre Permit Application Form and a map of the property if needed. You will need to provide the following information:
· New House - property owners name, property location, power supplier, and current mailing address and phone number.. Once you have a map and the Pre Permit Application Form you will go to the
.· Environmental Services Office to get a septic permit.
With a copy of the Pre Permit Application Form, your septic permit, and your zoning permit (if needed) you are now ready to go to the
· Building Inspector's office to get the building permit. After your building permit is issued and construction has started, example: footers poured and driveway cut, your address will be assigned. If you are building in Forest City, you will get your building permit from the Town of Forest City Planning Department.
NOTE: If you are inside the city limits of Chimney Rock, Lake Lure, Rutherfordton, Spindale or Bostic you must obtain a Zoning Permit from the Zoning Department in the respective town before starting any of the above processes.

How will I be notified of my new address?
After your address is assigned we can relay the address by phone or you may call the Addressing Department at 828-287-6320. If requested at the time of the Pre Permit and given a daytime phone number the Addressing Department will call you.

Where and how do I display my new E-911 address?
Postal Regulations and County Ordinance require your new address to be posted on your mailbox if you receive your mail at your home.
The numbers need to be (3) three-inch numbers and displayed on each side of the mailbox. If there is more than one mailbox, please post the numbers on the door of the mailbox.
The County requires you to display your address on the front of your structure if it is visible from the street. Display (3) three-inch numbers for a residence, or (6) six-inch numbers for a business. If your house is (75) seventy-five feet or greater from the roadway, please display a sign indicating the assigned number at the entrance to the driveway.
