LEE COUNTY E-911 PROGRAM ADDRESSING
The presence of readable building numbers is helpful to the casual
visitor. Numbers shall be visible from the street, particularly on busy streets.
Take a slow drive through your neighborhood on a rainy night and find out what you can see.
In
emergency situations, minutes can make a difference.
Here are some suggestions and considerations:
- Your numbers should be visible day or night,
rain or shine.
- Corner lot buildings should have posted numbers on the side of the building on which it is
addressed.
- Backlit numbers on light fixtures can be helpful as long as
the bulb is not too bright.
- Screen and storm doors can obstruct visibility of numbers
on your front door.
Is your
building number visible from the road?
Can you be found in the
event of an emergency? |
