As used in this chapter, "building" means any structure used
or intended to be used as a dwelling or place of business or industry,
or any other use requiring a location identity, but shall not include
any accessory building located upon a lot where there is also a main
building.
[Ord. No. 65,
passed 10-3-1961]
The map known as "Upper Providence Township Street Number Plan,"
bearing the same date as this chapter, is hereby incorporated into
this chapter. The said map shall be maintained current by the Township
Secretary by the addition of new buildings as constructed.
[Ord. No. 65,
passed 10-3-1961]
It shall be the duty of the Township to notify present owners
of properties of the new numbers which have been assigned to said
properties which will require a number, and it shall be the duty of
such owner so notified to comply within 30 days with the further provisions
of this chapter.
[Ord. No. 65,
passed 10-3-1961]
Numbers, as assigned to each building in the Township according
to the provisions of this chapter, shall be affixed to or painted
or carved upon such building or upon a permanent standard, base or
support between such building and the street. Each number shall be
at least three inches high, shall be of such color and material as
to be visible from the street and shall be constantly maintained in
complete and legible form. The property owner shall reaffix or renew
all numbers that shall not continue to conform to the requirements
of this section, provided, however, that in the case of buildings
occupied by other than the owner thereof, the occupant, rather than
the owner, shall be responsible for maintaining numbers upon such
buildings as hereby required.
[Ord. No. 65,
passed 10-3-1961]
Whenever a building shall hereafter be erected in the Township,
the owner thereof shall forthwith apply to the Township Secretary
for the official number thereof. The number shall be assigned by the
Township Secretary in conformity with the requirements set forth in
this chapter for numbers for existing buildings and shall, within
30 days after being assigned to such building, be affixed by the owner
thereof in the manner required by this chapter in the case of existing
buildings and shall thereafter be maintained as hereby required for
the numbers of existing buildings.
