For structures situated fifty feet or less from the street, the address number may be conspicuously placed immediately above, on or at the side of the primary door of each building so that the number can be seen plainly from the road. As an alternative, the owner may choose to post the address placard in the same manner as a structure situated more than fifty feet from the road. If it is opted by the owner to post the address on the structure, and the main entrance is on the side or does not face the road, the address shall be conspicuously placed on the side of the building facing the road.

Whenever a building is situated more than fifty feet from the road, or when the view of the building is blocked, the number shall be conspicuously placed on a post, gate, fence, etc. This placement must be somewhere in an arc within thirty feet from where the center of the driveway or access meets the road. It will be posted in such a way that the address number is parallel with the main roadway or visible when accessing from either direction. It shall be at a height of between four and six feet from the level of the road.

On roads which may be accessed from “only” one direction, the number may be posted perpendicular to the main roadway in such a way that it is clearly visible when being approached by emergency responders.

Addressable entities other than buildings, such as recreational lots or stand alone utility sites, shall display the address at the access or driveway in the same manner as a building located more than fifty feet from a roadway.

On a corner lot, the building number shall face the road named in the address. Building addresses shall be in contrast with background colors to be easily visible from the road at night. Building addresses shall be plain block numerals, not script or written numbers. Building addresses shall be a minimum of five inches in height.

If more than one address is on one driveway and the buildings or entities are farther than fifty feet from the road, then the addresses shall be posted at the road and also on the buildings or addressable entities. The address shall also be posted at any confusing intersection within the private drives, with directional arrows if needed, to clarify the route to each address. (Ord. 2721 Att. A § 1, 2005)
