(A) All properties or parcels of land within the corporate limits of the city shall hereafter be identified by reference to the uniform numbering system adopted herein; all existing numbers of property and buildings shall be changed to conform to the system herein adopted within 90 days of the property owner’s receipt of the notice of change from the city.
(B) The numbering of buildings on each street shall begin at the base lines indicated on the map titled “Etowah, Tennessee-Property Numbering System”. All numbers shall be assigned on the basis of one number for each ten feet of frontage along the street. Grid lines, as shown on the property numbering map, indicate the point at which numbers will change from one hundred to the next higher hundred. All buildings on the south side of east-west streets and east of north-south streets shall bear odd numbers, and all buildings on the north side of east-west streets and west side of north-south streets shall bear even numbers.
