(3)

Where applicable, easily legible numbers shall also be affixed to the mailbox serving the building or house.

Assigned numbers shall be displayed on the front entrance of each principal building and, in the case of a principal building which is occupied by more than one business or family dwelling unit, on each separate front entrance.

(5)

Any different numbers which might be mistaken for or confused with the number assigned in accordance with the numbering system shall be removed upon proper display of the assigned number.

(6)

Assigned numbers shall not be displayed on any street other than the street to which the number is assigned.
