(A) The purpose of this subchapter is to establish a uniform numbering system for the systematic numbering of addresses for houses and structures located within the city and the jurisdictional area of the city Plan Commission.
(B) The numbering of houses and other structures in an orderly and systematic manner will make the location of these houses and structures more expeditious in cases of fire emergencies, in situations involving immediate need for medical attention for family members or occupants of a building, and in instances where police protection may be required. An orderly and systematic numbering process will also enhance the delivery of goods and services, as well as increase the efficiency of operations such as postal delivery.
