Received a Change of Address Notice? Here's what it means:

Bayfield County is continuing important work on its Next Generation 911 (NG911) system to improve how emergency responders locate and reach people in need.

As part of this effort, some addresses are being updated—even if they’ve been used the same way for many years. These changes help ensure that when you call 911, your location is accurate and responders can find you as quickly as possible.

If your address is being changed, you will receive a notification letter in the mail, prior to the change being made.

We understand that updating your address can be inconvenient, but making these changes promptly helps protect you, your family, and your neighbors when every second counts.

Thanks for your understanding and cooperation!
