Addresses are assigned by the City of Lenexa at the time property is approved for development, normally at time of final approval. Single-family residential addresses are assigned one per lot of the platted subdivision at the time of final plat approval. Duplex and multi-family, commercial and industrial addresses are assigned at the time of final plan approval.

PROCEDURE:
As noted above, addresses are assigned at the time of development approval. In residential subdivisions, addresses will not be released to the applicant until the subdivision plat has been recorded at the Johnson County Register of Deeds Office and a duly recorded copy of the plat returned to the City Department of Community Development. Addresses are then provided to the Project Engineer to prepare an address plat. Address plats will not be released to the general public until the infrastructure of the subdivision has been completed and inspected by the maintaining jurisdiction.

Addresses for commercial, industrial, and multifamily projects that do not require the construction of platted public improvements will be provided at the request of the developer anytime after final plan approval.

VERIFICATION:
If a new address has been assigned, or if there is a question about the accuracy of an address and/or street name, verification may be requested through the Department of Community Development. Verification can be provided verbally or in writing. In order to ensure prompt response to your inquiry please attempt to have the parcel identification number (as assigned on County Tax Record) or a legal description of the parcel in question.

CONTACTS:
The primary contact for information about addresses and street names is James Walbert, Planner III, at (913) 477-7733.
