House Address Numbers

House address numbers must be posted in the front of your home and in the lane. If emergency personnel are coming to your house, they need to see the address very quickly to save precious time.

The numbers must be:

  • Easily read from the street
  • Well-lit at night
  • High contrast with dark numbers on a light background or light numbers on a dark background

Do not use brass or other shiny materials.
