Structures that are less than 50 feet from the street or private access road are not required to post the address at the entrance to the property, but shall be required to display the address on the structure in compliance with all other requirements of this chapter.

    (d)

    Multiple single-family structures that are accessed by the same entrance shall have all the addresses posted at the entrance to the property and on the structures themselves. This is applicable to apartments, condominiums, manufactured and mobile home parks.

On internal roads within a park, address ranges shall be posted on a sign showing which direction the ranges are located in the park.

    (h)

    Trailer park and trailer camp lots shall be plainly staked off and marked. There shall be posted and maintained in a conspicuous place on each trailer lot a number so that each trailer lot may be easily identified.
