(A) All buildings, houses, manufactured homes, mobile homes and mobile units fronting on any street or alley in the town shall be numbered in some conspicuous place on the principal structure by the owner thereof, according to numbers assigned by the U.S. postal service: all odd numbers being on one side of the street and all even numbers on the other. The numbers are to be approximately three and three-fourth inches in height, a color different from surrounding colors, and placed so that they can be easily seen from the street by police, fire and rescue personnel. Reflective numbers are preferred but are not mandatory.
(B)
Any person not knowing his or her street number shall apply to the Postmaster for a number. Any person failing or refusing to put the proper number on his or her building, house, manufactured home, mobile home or mobile unit or putting the wrong number thereon, or failing or refusing to comply with any other requirement of this section shall be subject to the penalties as outlined in § 94.999, and each day’s continuing violation shall be a separate and distinct offense.
(C) All violations of this section shall subject the offender where applicable to a civil penalty to be recovered by the city in a civil action in the nature of debt if the offender does not pay the penalty within 30 days after he has been cited for violation of the ordinance, and may be enforced by an appropriate equitable remedy including but not limited to injunctions and orders of abatement issued from a court of competent jurisdiction as outlined in § 94.999.
