To help us find you in an emergency, we are asking that you post your new address in accordance with the ordinance for Susquehanna county:
Where do I have to post the numbers? On my house? Mailbox?
We ask that as soon as practical, you post your number on your mailbox (both sides). If you do not have a mailbox in front of the house (or if your mailbox is across the road or otherwise not directly in front of the building), we ask that you mount the number on a post, 3-4 feet off the ground (to get above snow levels), using 4-inch or larger numbers. The numbers should be reflective and a contrasting color to the background.
We also ask that the number also be posted on the front of the house, visible from the road. If the house is too far away from the road to see the number clearly, or is screened by trees or other buildings, refer to the sign instructions above. The intent of this is to ensure that emergency personnel can quickly and accurately locate your house, day or night.

In an
attempt to make this transition easier for the public, the
United Fire Company is selling 18"X6" reflective signs for the
price of $15 with 4" reflective numbers attached. These signs
can be created in either a horizontal or vertical orientation
with your address numbers already affixed to the sign. The sign
on the right is an example of what a vertical mount looks like.
To obtain an address sign, please download, print, and fill out
the form from the link below. Forms can also be obtained from
the fire hall or by asking a fire hall member. Thank you in
advance for helping us help you. Address Sign Form For more information or questions about you address contact the Susquehanna County 911 addressing toll free at Phone : 1-800-395-6503 or on the web at: http://susq911.com/readd.htm |
