[Ord. 497, 10/10/1988, § 2]
From and after the effective date of this Part 2, the Township
shall assign street or road numbers to all buildings in the Township
which have heretofore not been numbered and shall give notice to the
registered owner and to the occupant of each building of the number
so assigned. In all cases of new construction, the Township shall
assign a number at the time the building permit is issued. Nothing
herein contained shall be construed to relieve such owner and occupant
of the duty to ascertain such assigned street number.
[Ord. 497, 10/10/1988, § 3]
Within 60 days from the effective date hereof, or the date of
receipt of a number from the Township, whichever is later, every owner
and occupant of every building within the Township shall cause the
number so assigned or heretofore assigned to be posted, painted, or
carved upon the street side of the building, or on the entrance gatepost,
or mailbox, or on any permanent post or structure located between
the building and the street on which it fronts, in such manner than
it can be read during daylight hours from the road or street by persons
of normal vision. Nothing herein contained shall require a school,
church, or public building or other institution to display the assigned
number on the building if, in lieu thereof, a sign containing the
number and identifying the building is so placed that it can be read
during daylight hours from the road or street by persons of normal
vision.
[Ord. 497, 10/10/1988, § 4]
On new construction, the number assigned to the building unit
shall be erected by the owner within 30 days after settlement on the
subject building unit.

Any owner or occupant who fails to comply with the provisions
of this Part 2 shall be in violation of the provisions of this Part
2 and shall, upon conviction before a District Justice, be sentenced
to pay a fine of not less than $10 nor more than $600 for each offense,
as well as the cost of prosecution. A new and separate offense shall
be deemed to have been committed for each seven days that a violation
exists. Such fines shall be collected and distributed as like fines
are now collected by law.
