(A) This section proposes the naming or renaming of the streets, avenues and public ways in the city, also the numbering of houses and buildings according to a uniform system.
(B) Thoroughfares running north and south shall be called streets, and those running east and west shall be called avenues.
(C) Beginning with the first avenue north of County Road No. 1 as an alphabetical beginning and consecutively thereafter alphabetically to the north.
(D) In the same manner, streets will begin numbering on the west side of the city proceeding consecutively to the east starting at the present 4th Street and Skyview Drive as the new 4th Street which will leave a possible expansion of streets to the west.
(E) House and building numbers shall be assigned and displayed in accordance to the following plan.
(1) Assignment of numbers shall be as agreed by the City Council or its agent, the City Clerk.
(2) Those buildings nearest the base streets (4th and County Road No. 1) will use the smallest numbers in that block series.
(3) Those buildings west of 4th Street will be considered in the 300 block until a new 3rd Street is established.
(4) Odd numbers shall be on west and south sides of avenues and streets, even numbers on east and north to follow postal standards.
(5) Initial numbers will be assigned by a committee approved by the City Council and thereafter by the City Clerk.
(6) Numbers shall be displayed within 30 days from the time the owner, leaser or occupant are notified by the City Clerk either in person or by mail.
(7) Numbers shall be no less than three inches in height and displayed so as to be clearly visible from the street.
(8) Numbers for even side of block will end with “0” except upstairs and basement residence will end with “6”. Odd side of block will end with “1”, except upstairs or basement residence will end with “5”.

(10) Blocks will use 00=20-40-60-80 on even sides and 11-31-51-71-91 on odd sides of residential blocks for unison and clarity as much as possible. This will allow approximately 60 feet per unit.

A copy shall be available in the office of the City Clerk for inspection by the public. On or before January 31 of each year thereafter, it shall be the duty of the City Clerk to prepare a certificate stating the new numbers assigned during the proceeding calendar year, and send on to the Register of Deeds of the county for attaching to the plat of the city.
