The numbering of houses and other structures in an orderly and systematic manner will make locating such houses and structure more expeditious in cases of fire emergencies, in situations involving immediate need for emergency medical services for family members, or building occupants and in instances where police protection may be required. An orderly and systematic house numbering process will also enhance the delivery of goods and services, as well as increase the efficiency of operations such as the postal service.
