The Town adopted the State of Maine E-911 addressing standards as a part of our municipal ordinance in 1994.
The purpose of this ordinance is to permit the Town of Camden to establish names for roads which are not confusing, which do not duplicate other road names, and which avoid multiple names for the same road; and to number structures and dwellings on new or existing parcels within the town.
It is very important to display your assigned number in accordance with the Town of Camden’s Addressing Policy. These simple requirements will assist emergency personnel in locating you, as well as assisting with utilities, delivery services and others who may need to find you.
As a general rule we do not number vacant lots; new construction building permits start the process. However if your vacant lot does need a number a written request is appreciated.
