Town of Perry Proposes Rural Numbering Ordinance

The Town of Perry has proposed a Rural Numbering and Maintenance Ordinance which will reinforce the County’s road numbering ordinance by providing for a system of replacement and maintenance of rural number signs when they are lost or removed. The first public hearing on the proposed ordinance will be held on Tuesday May 13, 2008, 7:30 PM at the Perry Town Hall.

Section 76.07 (1) Dane County Code of Ordinances provides that address numbers for buildings which are located more than 60 feet from the road right-of-way shall be installed on a post. The post shall not be located more than 10 feet from the driveway serving the building and not more than 10 feet from the road right-of-way. The post may be located on either side of the driveway. Height of the number shall not be less than 3 feet or more than 4 feet about the ground. The number shall be installed perpendicular to the road and shall not be concealed from view from the road by trees, shrubs, bushes, etc.

Compliance with the above listed instructions is very important with regard to emergency services. Failure to install a number as specified could delay effective service. The owner of the land on which a numbering sign is located shall be responsible for the installation and maintenance of the number as specified by the Dane County ordinance.

IT'S NICE TO BE DIFFERENT, BUT IT'S BETTER TO BE SAFE!
