(A) All properties, parcels of land, and principal buildings within the corporate limits of the city shall hereafter be identified by reference to the uniform numbering system adopted herein, provided all existing numbers of property and buildings not now in conformity with provisions of this subchapter shall be changed to conform to the system herein adopted on June 1, 1984.
(B) A separate number shall be assigned for each parcel or principal building regardless of whether mail is delivered to such parcel or building. Only officially named public and private streets approved according to § 179.066 shall be used for the assignment of numbers.
(C) Numerals indicating the official numbers for each principal building or each front entrance to such building shall be posted. in such a manner as to be clearly visible and distinguishable from the street on which the property is located. Such numerals shall be a minimum of three (3) inches in height and one-half (½) inch in width and of a contrasting color with the building. Principal buildings obtaining permit approval after the effective date of this subchapter shall post the address numerals before issuance of a certificate of occupancy.
(D) Multiple-family units (including apartments, condominiums and townhouse dwellings) that access onto named private drives or public road rights-of-way shall be assigned four (4) digit numbers in which the first two (2) digits refer to the building number and the appropriate grid range, the third digit refers to the floor number, and the fourth digit, where feasible, indicates the side — north, south, east or west — of the street the unit is located. Odd numbers are assigned to the north and east sides of a street or drive and even numbers are assigned to the south and west sides. The first two (2) digits may also be assigned on the odd/even scheme just described. If it is foreseen that a possible duplication of numbers may occur on road rights-of-way where other structures can exist, one (1) number based on the appropriate grid range shall be assigned to each building. Each unit will then be assigned a three (3) digit number in which the first digit will indicate which floor the unit is located (e.g., 101, 201, 301).
(E) Commercial and industrial buildings containing more than one (1) occupant shall be assigned one (1) number based on the appropriate grid range and the individual units shall be numbered consecutively in a logical fashion. Structures containing one (1) occupant shall be assigned one (1) number based on the appropriate grid range.
