It is the intent of this chapter to:
A. Establish a uniform system of property/dwelling/building
address numbering within the Township of Middlesex in order that there be
an accurate address data base in connection with the Township's participation
in the Butler County Enhance 9-1-1 System; and
B. Establish a uniform system of posting and displaying
address identification numbers in order that property/dwelling/building addresses
within the Township may be easily located in emergency situations.
Within 90 days after notification by the Township of Middlesex, the
owners and/or occupants of each property/dwelling/ building shall post the
address identification number assigned by the Township.
Any person who violates or permits a violation of this chapter shall,
upon conviction in a summary proceeding brought before a District Justice
under the Pennsylvania Rules of Criminal Procedure, be guilty of a summary
offense and shall be punishable by a fine of not more than $1,000, plus costs
of prosecution. In default of payment thereof, the defendant may be sentenced
to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 90 days. Each day or portion thereof
that such violation continues or is permitted to continue shall constitute
a separate offense, and each section of this chapter that is violated shall
also constitute a separate offense. Notice to the offender shall not be necessary
in order to constitute an offense.
