It’s a fact that Emergency Response Teams can be hindered by the lack of or by poor address posting. Script and Roman numerals do not promote easy identification in an emergency situation and mailbox placement may cause confusion. The City of Goshen respectfully requests that each homeowner post his property, in accordance with Oldham County Law, by using Arabic numerals on the door or house itself. The number should contrast well with the color of your home and be clearly visible from the street. This small action on your part could help save your life or the life of someone you care about.
