Village Voice: The importance of proper street address placement

You are waiting for your pizza to be delivered, and you wonder why it is taking so long. Finally the driver arrives, frustrated because she couldn’t find your address on your house.

Waiting a few extra minutes for a pizza is an inconvenience, but having an improperly placed street address, or no visible street address, could be a life or death situation when emergency services are trying to respond to a call.

Work orders for water and sewer services are issued based on street addresses, and if Village employees have difficulty locating your house number, your requested work may be delayed.
