BASIC NUMBERING OF ADDRESSES

A:

The City is Divided up in a Grid System

B:

80…Thru 84…Running W - E

79 = Adams Street

80 = Jefferson Street

84 = Van Buren Street

(There are theoretically addresses between grid lines)

C:

Even numbers are on the North and East side of the Streets

W - E

1. Find the distance from the mid point of the grid line to the mid point of the property in question.

2. Each Address Number = 5.25 feet

3. Calculation = : Total Number of Feet / 5.28’ = last (3) digits of Address
The first (2) digits are the Grid line # i.e. 79…84
     N   
     i    
     S  
  
1.   Find the distance from the mid point of a grid line to the mid point of the property in question.
2.   Each Address Number = 2.64 feet
3.   Calculation = : Total Number of Feet / 2.64’ = last (3) digits of Address
The first (2) digits are the Grid line # i.e. 38…52

E:

NORTH SIDE of STREET = EVEN NUMBERS
EAST SIDE of STREET = EVEN NUMBERS
WEST SIDE of STREET = ODD NUMBERS
