There is hereby established a building and structure numbering system for certain existing properties within the Township of Marshall, County of Allegheny and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Supervisors of the Township of Marshall 10-5-1988 by Ord. No. 212. Amendments noted where applicable.]
Within 90 days after notification by the Township, the owners or occupants of each building and structure within the Township of Marshall shall conspicuously post the street number of such building or structure at some location on the premises on which the building or structure is located so that the number is clearly visible from a street which provides public access to such premises.
Any area that is not numbered according to the system referred to above shall be numbered as said area is developed.
Buildings and structures that are not visible from a public roadway shall be conspicuously numbered on the mailbox at the public roadway.
The Township of Marshall or any officer or employee of the Township designated thereby for the purpose is hereby authorized to give written notice, by personal service or by United States mail, to the owner or occupant, as the case may be, of any premises whereupon the street number at the premises is not posted in violation of the provisions of this Chapter, directing and requiring such owner or occupant to post a street number so as to conform to the requirements of this Chapter within 15 days after issuance of such notice. In case any owner, owners or occupants shall neglect, fail or refuse to comply with such notice within the period of time stated herein, the Township authorities may post a street number on the premises and collect the cost thereof, together with any additional penalty authorized by law, from such owner, owners or occupant in the manner provided by law.
[Amended 10-5-1994 by Ord. No. 263]
Any owner, owners or occupants who shall violate or fail, neglect or refuse to comply with any of the provisions of this Chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $600, plus the costs of prosecution, and, in default of payment of such fine and costs, imprisonment for a term not to exceed 30 days, provided that each day's violation shall constitute a separate offense; and notice to the offender shall not be necessary in order to constitute an offense.
