Some Bell Acres residents are about to change their addresses — though they won’t be going anywhere.
An ordinance passed by coun-cU last week calls for the redesignation of private addresses ' in Bell Acres so that fi^e and police vehicles will have an easier time finding them in case < of emergency.
Within 30. days of having ' numbers assigned, residents will bs required to affix'them in a prominent spot or face a fine.
However,, enforcement seems to be a long way off. Details still have to be worked'out between the Sewickley Post Office and the borough before the new numbers are assigned. The process could take as long as shi months.
The ordinanc^\vas,worked out under the direction of the Fire Ciiief Kenneth Conditin cdopera-tioii with the post office. It requires that all roads in the borough be named, and that all residences be numbered.
Currently, many Bell Acres homes are on unmarked roads and have rural delivery, or box numbers, instead of house numbers.
In the past, there has been confusion oyer exactly who lives . where, 'accordirig to a post-office spokesman, who worked with the
borough in shaping the ordinance, but who declined to bs identified.
“There are people with the same last names who live on the same street,” the employee said. “At the post office we’ve mainly sorted the mail by names. When we get new workers here, those who are not from around here, they give all the mail addressed to one name to the same household.”
Areas in the horough that present the most difficulty are ' Cainpmeeting, Road' Extension, Big Sewickley Creek Road, and Beadnell Drive, he said.
