Once a property address has been assigned to a specific structure, it shall be the responsibility of the property owner or resident to provide the address number on the structure, mailbox, or mailbox post in the rural area, or on a sign facing the street/road in a non-rural area. Numbers are to be placed on structures in a location which faces the street upon which it is addressed. The numbers, and the complete address if desired, should be placed on the structure near a main entry door or on a cornice, porch and the like that is located at least 5 feet above the threshold on the right side (as you are standing outside facing the door) of any entrance door. In all situations, property numbers and lettering shall be no less than 3 inches in vertical height, and the color of the letters shall contrast with the background of the mailbox or structure, in order to be readable. Street address numbers and lettering shall be placed in a visible location on all residential, commercial, industrial, and public structures on or before July 1, 1993.
