House Number Visibility

September 24, 2021   |    |  

In recent weeks, Bellefonte Borough emergency services have experienced difficulty locating street addresses due to no or improperly positioned house numbers.

A Borough ordinance requires all buildings to have address numbers placed in a position that is plainly legible and visible from the street or road fronting the property.  It is best to have the numbers positioned near the front door.  Numbers should contrast with the background for easy visibility day and night.  They should be Arabic numerals, a minimum of 4 inches high with a minimum stroke width of 0.5 inch.

If you have any questions call Harry Brooks @ 814-355-1501, ext 225.
