(A) The uniform number system is generally based on the Lyman System by assignment of 1000 addresses per mile. Even-numbered addresses shall be assigned on the north and west sides of roads and odd-numbered addresses shall be assigned on the south and east sides of roads.
(B) The grid system to be used is to be constructed on a north, south, east, and west basis using the existing base roads in the county highway system, with each mile portion of roadway becoming a block for uniform numbering purposes. The road numbering system begins in the Town of Brownstown at the corner of Sections 11, 12, 13, and 14, Township 5 North, Range 4 East. Base Road North shall be that portion of county roadway that lies along the section line extending north from the intersection named above to the Bartholomew County line. Base Road South shall be that portion of county roadway that lies along the section line extending south from the intersection named above to the Washington County line. Base Road East shall be that portion of county roadway that lies along the section line extending east from the intersection named above to the Jennings County line. Base Road West shall be that portion of county roadway that lies along the section line extending west from the intersection named above to the Lawrence County line.
(C) The new system shall utilize the current official county road numbers and add to them a prefix with a numerical location followed by a letter indicating the general direction the road runs from the base road.
(D) The current addressing scheme of the city and of the Towns of Brownstown, Crothersville, and Medora shall be taken into account for areas adjoining each incorporated area.
