A. The City’s four address districts are the northeast, the northwest, the southeast and the southwest districts which shall be used for address prefixes (NE, NW, SE and SW). All street signs shall indicate the district in which the street is located. The district shall be used as a prefix preceding the name of the street.

B. Both sides of the same street shall be in the same series of numbers whenever practicable and the numbers shall increase away from the division lines. The address number shall be determined by where the building’s main entrance faces a public street or an approved signed private road. An occupancy may have an address on a public alley if an occupancy’s only frontage is on the alley with City approval.

C. For irregular or winding blocks and streets, numbers shall be assigned and placed corresponding to the general direction of the street.

D. Loop streets shall be numbered progressively as if they were a section of the street they are accessed from, regardless of any change of direction.

E. Properties on the north and east side of streets shall have even numbers and properties on the south and west side of the streets shall have odd numbers. If a street changes direction, the odd and even sides shall be assigned to reflect the general direction (north-east or south-west) of the street. Odd and even sides shall remain the same for the entire length of the street, regardless of changes in direction. A circle street or loop street shall have even numbers on the inside of the circle or loop and odd numbers on the outside.

F. Where a building has several entrances for use by different occupancies, a separate unit number may be assigned to each occupancy.

G. Address numbers assigned to sites with new construction shall be displayed on site when construction begins.

H. If an address is found to be incorrect or inconsistent, the City has full authority to make the necessary changes to the address and will communicate these changes to the owner and applicable agencies. Address numbers that are changed must be displayed within 30 days from the date on which the address becomes effective. [Ord. NS-2180, 2012]
