business, industrial and other building in the Town by the owner of
such structures within 90 days after approval by the state attorney
general in accordance with the following:

near the main entrance to the structure so as to be visible;
C.Â
The numbers shall be those assigned to each structure in accordance
with the street numbering survey completed by the board of assessors
on file in the office of the assessors;
D.Â
The owner of any property seeking a building permit for a new building
or structure shall apply for and receive a building number designation
from the building official and no building permit shall be issued
without designation of such building number;
E.Â
It shall be the responsibility of each property owner in Town to
obtain a number assigned to his affected structure or structures within
three months of the effective date of the bylaw from which this section

Any person who intends to erect, repair or take down any building
on land abutting on any way which this Town is obliged to keep in
repair and desires to make use of any portion of such way for the
purpose of placing thereon building materials or rubbish, shall give
notice thereof to the selectmen. Thereupon, the selectmen may grant
a permit to occupy such a portion of such way to be used for such
purpose as in their judgment the necessity of the case demands and
the security of the public allows. Such permit shall in no case be
in force longer than 90 days and shall be on such conditions as the
selectmen may require. In every case, from sunset in the evening to
sunrise the following morning, lighted lanterns or other lamps shall
be placed so effectually to secure all travelers from liability to
come in contact with such building material or rubbish.
