(A) Purpose. It is the purpose of this section to establish a uniform system for numbering all dwellings and structures, both residential and business, in the city.
(B) Numbering required. All dwellings and structures used for residential and/or business purposes, including schools, places of meeting, and churches, which are included within the city boundary lines, shall be numbered at, or near, the main entrance thereto, and shall, at all times, keep and maintain a number in conformity with the terms of this section.
(C) Placement of numbers. All figures used in numbering the structure location shall be clear, precise, accurate, and permanent. These numbers should be the type that should either be nailed on, or screwed on, as opposed to the stick-on type. No self-adhesive numbers shall be used. The figures and numbers shall be not less than four inches in height and easily legible from the street upon which the structure is situated.
(D) Assignment of numbers.
(1) Numbers shall be assigned by the Zoning Administrator to all houses and buildings in the city.
(2) Whenever any house or building is to be erected hereafter, a number shall be assigned by the Zoning Administrator at the time the building permit is granted. No number shall be placed on a structure or change of address without the consent of the City Council.
