Within 90 days after the publication of this article, all public utility companies placing or maintaining poles on any of the streets, alleys or other public thoroughfares of the Borough shall be required to number each and every pole and give some distinctive mark or designation of ownership, in order that the police inspection thereof may be more conveniently and efficiently done, recorded and reported; and, within the said 90 days, all public utility companies shall file with the Borough Secretary a list of poles according to number, the highway location of such numbers and the distinctive mark which denotes ownership.
