(A) For the purpose of numbering buildings in the city, it shall be divided into three sections as follows:
(1) All of that portion of the city lying north of the Burlington Northern R.R. track and east of Burlington Street shall be known as “Holdrege”;
(2) All of that portion of the city lying west of Burlington Street and north of the Burlington Northern R.R. shall be known as “West Holdrege”; and
(3) All of that portion of the city lying south of Burlington Northern R.R. shall be known as “South Holdrege”.
(B) (1) For the purpose of numbering buildings on streets and avenues in South Holdrege, there shall be prefixed to the name of all streets or avenues running north and south, the word “South”. For the purpose of numbering houses on all streets in West Holdrege, the word “West” shall be prefixed to all streets running west from Burlington Street.
(2) All streets north of the Burlington Northern R.R. and running east and west shall be known by numbers and the name avenue shall be affixed thereto so that they will be known as First (1st) Avenue, Second (2nd) Avenue, Third (3rd) Avenue and the like. To distinguish the streets running east and west in South Holdrege from those lying north of the Burlington Northern R.R., those streets running east and west in South Holdrege shall be known as First (1st) Street, Second (2nd) Street, Third (3rd) Street and the like.
(C) For the purpose of numbering buildings facing on streets running north and south, such numbers shall begin at 100 on the north side of First (1st) Street, 200 on the north side of Second (2nd) Street, 300 on the north side of Third (3rd) Street and so on throughout the entire portion lying between First (1st) Street and the Burlington Northern R.R.
(D) For the purpose of numbering buildings facing on streets running east and west, such numbers shall begin with 100 at Burlington Street, 200 at the first street east of Burlington Street and so on until the eastern limit of the city is reached, and for the purpose of numbering houses in West Holdrege, facing on streets running east and west, the numbers shall begin with 100 on the west side of Burlington Street, 200 on the west side of the next street west of Burlington Street and so on.
(E) (1) Each block or fractional block fronting upon a street or avenue shall have 50 numbers, commencing with the number 100 in the first block, 200 in the second block and so continuing with consecutive one-hundreds. The even numbers shall be placed on the right-hand side and the odd numbers on the left-hand side, with reference to the point of the commencing number.
(2) When opposite blocks are of different lengths, the numbers on the short block shall run in conformity to the numbers on the longer blocks opposite, and when blocks or fractional blocks or lots face upon or against the rear of any street the numbers of such lots or blocks shall continue to the further line of the street against which they face, and from that point the numbering shall be in conformity with the block opposite.
(F) Every street frontage of 25 feet shall constitute a lot for the purpose of numbering the buildings in the city. Each building having more that 25 feet frontage shall be numbered with the number to which the lot is entitled and in case a frontage of 25 feet shall have more than one building, one building shall be numbered with the number specified for that lot and the additional building shall be given the same number, adding one-half thereto.
