For the purpose of establishing a uniform and coordinated system
of property numbering in the Village of Bosque Farms, all numbering
shall be done in conformity with the following requirements:
A.
All houses and buildings abutting on any street, avenue, or public
way shall be numbered in reference to a uniform grid system of approximately
12 blocks per mile, with a range of 100 numbers allocated to each
block.
B.
The Village shall be divided into two bisections, east and west,
with the center line of Highway 47 (Bosque Farms Boulevard) dividing
east and west. All street names hereinafter shall include a bisection
designation in the form of a suffix to said name if such street shall
lie both east and west of this center line.
C.
Bosque Farms' north boundary shall constitute the base line for all
numbering on the streets running north and south. State Highway 47
shall constitute the base line for all numbering on the streets running
east and west.
D.
The numbering of buildings on each street shall originate and progress
from its respective base line. Grid lines, as shown on the official
reference map on file at the Village Clerk's office, indicate
the point at which numbers will change from 100 to the next higher
hundred.
E.
As a general rule, numbers shall be assigned on the basis of one
address for each 25 feet of frontage along the street.
F.
The properties situated on the north and east sides of streets and
avenues shall be given even numbers. Properties situated on the south
and west sides of streets shall be given odd numbers.
There is hereby established a master map with a grid overlay
entitled "Address and Street Name Reference Map," based on the County
Assessor's platting maps, hereinafter adopted and made a part
of this Section 10-3 and filed in the Village Clerk's office.
All existing street names shall be approved, revised, or renamed
so as to conform to the official reference map upon the adoption of
this Section 10-3. Hereafter, every subdivision plat submitted to
the Planning and Zoning Commission of the Village of Bosque Farms
for its approval shall show the proper names of any and all streets,
and these street designations shall be approved by the Planning and
Zoning Commission before such new streets are officially named.

Editor's Note: Amended at time of adoption of Code (see Section
1-1).
It shall be the responsibility of the Village Clerk to designate
the respective property numbers for buildings abutting on all existing
streets and on all streets hereafter to be laid out or extended and
to formulate rules and regulations regarding such designation in accordance
with this Section 10-3. A record of such property numbering shall
be maintained at the Village Clerk's office.
It shall be the duty of the owners of all properties containing
buildings to number such properties at the expense of said owners
with durable numerals at least three inches high in such manner and
location as to be plainly visible from the street. Assigned numbers

Hereafter, it shall be the duty of each property owner to request
the aforesaid assigned number from the Village Clerk's office
upon application for a state building permit.
The Village Council, by resolution, may change or rename an
existing or newly established street within the Village limits at
any time after the adoption of this Section 10-3 upon request of the
