Access/Address Information within Delta County
A Delta County Access Permit is required for all new driveways that access onto any Delta County Road. Access permits are also required any time the use of the existing access is changed (i.e., agricultural to residential), and anytime the location of the access is moved. Moving the location of the access may also cause the address for the property to be changed. Download the application, or view a list of the County’s recent address assignments.

Boundary Adjustments
The Boundary Adjustment procedure has been simplified! The process is as follows: Fill out and return the Boundary Adjustment Application to the Delta County Planning Department (no fee). The County Planner will review the application to determine if the request is a true boundary adjustment. After the County Planner has signed off on the request, you and your surveyor will work together to finish all subsequent steps to finalize the boundary adjustment.
