Description

Uniform street-naming and property-numbering systems enable residents to find addresses quickly and easily. This PAS classic is a comprehensive guide to establishing or revising street-naming and house-numbering systems. It shows how to number individual properties; suggests ways to implement a new numbering system; reviews the legal aspects of street naming and numbering; and discusses systems suitable for larger jurisdictions such as rural and metropolitan areas or even entire states. The appendices provide sample ordinances and subdivision regulations.
