Many house numbers are often obscured by landscaping, are on different places of each home, and commonly are unlit. This can make it difficult to find a house address, especially at night. To help emergency personnel find your house more quickly, add painted house numbers to your curb by borrowing a free Curb Painting Kit from the city's Citizen Service Department by submitting your request below.
"Do your part to help public safety and emergency personnel locate your home more easily," says Police Chief Jeff Walther. "It takes very little time to ensure your street address is clearly visible to ambulance, Police and Fire department teams."
The free lending kit, which includes minimum 3-inch stencil numbers, masking tape, brushes and instructions, is easy to use. The user provides the paint - consult your local paint dealer to determine what paint works best for you.
For those who live in Home Owner Association (HOA) areas, it is your responsibility to contact your association board or property manager to find out about any restrictions on your curb painting project and to get approval. The city is not responsible for violations to the Covenants, Codes & Restrictions (CC&R) arising from the use of the Curb Painting Kit program.
