Burn Permits

Obtaining a Burning Permit

Address Ordinance

Uniform Address

The Lisbon Fire Department strongly encourages you to take a moment this winter to ensure the safety of your family, residence, and/or place of business by complying with Section 30.007 of the Town Code. This mandates that, effective June 1, 2000, the address of your residence or place of business must be clearly visible from the road and installed parallel to the side of the street on which your home or business is located.

The address must be no more than 25 feet from the edge of the road pavement, within 10 feet of either side edge of the driveway; and between 2 feet and 5 feet above the finished grade at the point of installation. Homes and businesses sharing a common driveway or located on a private road must have numbers at the intersection with the public road, at each split, or intersection thereafter, and on the property itself.

The minimum sizes of the numbers are 2 1/4 inches wide and 3 1/2 inches high, and must be on black on white or a reflective background. Mailboxes may serve to display the house or business numbers if they are located within 10 feet of the driveway and there is no other mailbox adjacent. In instances where more than one mailbox exists, house numbers must be placed on each individual property as described above.

A written notice will be served to those in non-compliance after June 1, 2000. Those failing to comply within 10 days after receiving the written notice will be subject to a fine of not less than $50 per day for each day the violation continues, together with the cost of prosecution.

Please assist us in locating you or your property in the event of an emergency. It could mean the difference between life and death.
