Submitting a list of proposed road names prior to submitting the plat for approval with commissioner’s court or city council is advised to prevent delays should the road name(s) need to be changed due to conflicts with County Addressing Standards and Procedures.

• It is the responsibility of the developer to request mapping of any newly established roads that are part of a new development/subdivision. All roads must be mapped, named, and go through a thorough validation process before an address can be issued. This process can take 3-4 weeks.
