All streets of the city shall be known by the names by which they are so designated on the official map of Salt Lake City, filed in the office of the public works director on December 3, 1920, and such additions, changes and corrections of the names of streets as shall from time to time be placed on said official map by ordinance. (Prior code § 41-6-1)
A nonrefundable fee as shown on the Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule shall be paid by any person requesting consideration by the city of a change of the name of any city street. Said fee shall not be payable where such street name change is determined by the city to be necessary in order to eliminate duplication of names or to avoid other confusion which would have a negative impact upon the providing of emergency services if such street remains unchanged. (Ord. 24-11, 2011)
It shall be the duty of the city engineer, in numbering the houses or buildings upon the streets of the city, to adopt a numbering system in accordance with the Salt Lake County addressing system, allowing one number every 8.25 feet. The initial point shall be the junction of Main Street and South Temple, and the numbering shall extend east, west, north and south with even numbers always on the right, and odd numbers always on the left, looking away from the initial point. In numbering such streets which do not strictly run in a compass direction, the city engineer shall attempt to make such numbering as consistent as possible with the scheme expressed above. (Ord. 88-86 § 63, 1986: prior code § 41-6-2)
It is unlawful for any person to erect a house or building within the limits of the city without numbering such house or building with the number designated by the public works director, or for the occupant of any house or building, or for the owner or agent of any unoccupied habitable house or building, to fail for a longer period than ten (10) days after notice from the public works director so to do, to number such a house or building with the number designated by the public works director. (Prior code § 41-6-6)
Upon application being made to the public works director, he/she shall issue a certificate giving the correct street number for such house or building, for which he/she shall charge and receive the fee shown on the Salt Lake City consolidated fee schedule. (Ord. 24-11, 2011)
When such number has been designated by the public works director, the owner or occupant of such house or building shall cause a painted, carved or cast duplicate of such number at least three inches (3") in height and of a shade in contrast to the background upon which the number is mounted to be placed in a conspicuous position upon the front of such house or building, in a permanent, stationary and durable manner, unobstructed at all times by vines, screens or anything that would tend to hide or obscure the number, and so that the number will be clearly perceptible from a distance of one hundred fifty feet (150'). (Prior code § 41-6-7)
