[Amended 8-1-2005 by Ord.
No. 1003]
A plan of the entire Borough displaying all
streets, highways, roads, driveways, lanes and alleys thereof, and
indicating the lots therein, shall be prepared and maintained by the
Borough Engineer in conjunction with the U.S. Postal Service. It shall
be the duty of the Borough Building Inspector and Code Enforcement
Officer in conjunction with the U.S. Postal Service to number said
lots in such manner as to secure a uniform system for numbering houses
and buildings within the Borough.
All numbers shall be in Arabic numerals, in
clearly visible colors, at least three inches (76 mm) high, 1/2 inch
(13 mm) stroke, and placed in a position easily observed and readable
from the public right-of-way. It shall be the responsibility of the
owner(s) or occupant(s) of each house and building to place and maintain
assigned numbers.
The Building Inspector shall notify the owner(s) or occupant(s) to place assigned street numbers on the property within 30 days after notification, according to §
99-2 of this chapter.
Upon the completion of any new house or building,
the owner(s) or occupant(s) shall comply with the provisions of this
chapter before occupying the house or building.
All numbered houses shall become part of the
occupancy inspection and no permit shall be issued without complying
with the provisions of this chapter.
Any person(s) who shall violate any provision
of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, be sentenced to pay
a fine of up to $600, plus costs, and in default of payment of said
fine and costs, to a term of imprisonment not to exceed 30 days. Each
day that a violation of this chapter continues shall constitute a
separate offense.
