Do you know if first responders would be able to find your rural home or cottage in an emergency?
Everyone in your home should know your legal land description and the exact directions from a known landmark or intersection. Write down the legal land description and directions and keep them near the fridge or phone where they can easily be found in an emergency.
You should also make sure the entrance to your property is clearly marked and visible from the road.
The Civic Address Registry (CAR) is a voluntary program that helps assist emergency responders in finding residences and businesses quickly in the event of an emergency. The CAR database is compiled using address information provided by communities and locates properties by establishing unique access point locations.
