There are Rules for Displaying Your Address in Lower Saucon

Did you know that there are rules for displaying your home address if you live in Lower Saucon Township? The township code dictates that your address must be clearly displayed on the front of your home or on a mailbox, so police and emergency responders can more easily locate you in the event of a crisis.

The winter 2015 edition of the township’s quarterly newsletter includes photos of correctly displayed address signage and details the rules as follows:

• The street address number shall be in four (4) Arabic numbers.
• The street address number should be neat and legible to approaching emergency responders on mailboxes, buildings and doors.
• The street address number should be displayed either horizontally or vertically.
• The street address number should be at least 2 inches high and displayed on both sides of the mailbox or mailbox post

More information about these requirements can be found on the township’s website under Chapter 69 of the township code, which pertains to “Numbering of Buildings.”
