Sullivan County, New York, has implemented an enhanced 911 telephone
system whereby an individual is able to dial a 911 telephone number
in the event of an emergency. A Village-wide uniform numbering system
of all buildings will assist emergency personnel in responding efficiently
and quickly to an emergency. It is, therefore, in the best interest
of the public health, safety and welfare of the Village of Monticello
to enact this article of the Code of the Village of Monticello.
The Code Enforcement Officer or any other officer designated
by the Village Board of Trustees is authorized to decide which building
or buildings on any particular lot shall be numbered.
The display of any house number other than the number authorized
or assigned by the E-911 Coordinator and/or Code Enforcement Officer
is prohibited.
Any person, corporation, partnership or other entity violating
any of the provisions of this article shall, upon conviction, be guilty
of a violation punishable by a fine not to exceed $250. Each calendar
week or portion thereof that said violation continues shall be deemed
a separate violation.
