A uniform system of numbering dwellings and principal buildings,
as shown on maps to be on file with the Assessor's Office, Town
Hall, Great Barrington, MA is hereby adopted and incorporated herein
by reference.
All properties or parcels of land within the Town of Great Barrington
shall hereafter be identified by reference to the uniform numbering
system adopted herein.
Each building shall bear the number assigned to the frontage
on which the front entrance is located. In case a building is occupied
by more than one business or dwelling unit, each separate front entrance
of such building shall bear a separate number.
Numerals indicating the official numbers for each building,
shall be placed immediately above, on, or at the side of the main
entrance of each building so that the number can be seen clearly from
the street line. If a building is situated more than 50 from a street
line, the number shall be placed near the driveway or common entrance
to the building or upon a gate post, fence, tree, post or other appropriate
place so as to be clearly discernible from the street line. Numerals
shall be not less than three inches in height and made of a durable
and clearly visible reflective material.
The Board of Selectmen or designee shall be responsible for maintaining the numbering system, and shall keep a record of all numbers assigned under this bylaw and shall enforce the provisions of this bylaw. The Board of Selectmen or designee shall, at the request of a property owner, assign numbers for any new buildings constructed in Town in accordance with §§
62-1 and
62-2 of this bylaw.
Violations of this bylaw shall be a misdemeanor and may be punished
by a fine of $5 per day. Each separate day such violation is continued
shall constitute a separate offense.
