After the effective date of this chapter (Ordinance

the owner or occupant of each house and building in the Township of
the number assigned thereto and of the owner's or occupant's duty
to place the assigned number on the house or building within 30 days
of the receipt of such notice. Notice shall be deemed sufficient when
put in writing and either sent by mail to the owner or occupant or
delivered to the house or building to be numbered.
[Ord. 170. Passed 3-26-1979]

at least two and one-half inches in height, the color of the numbers
shall be in contrast with the immediate background and the placement
of the numbers shall be in full view. No person shall cover any house

way, and all old numbers shall be removed from any house, building
or structure when a new number has been assigned and when so directed
by the Township Code Official.
[Ord. 170. Passed 3-26-1979]
A subdivider, land developer or builder shall
submit a house numbering plan, prepared in accordance with the official
Township house numbering plan, to the Township Code Official for approval
thereof at the time a building permit application is made. When approved,
house numbers shall be assigned and shall be erected by the subdivider,
land developer or builder in the same manner as provided in this chapter
for others within the Township.
