Question of the Month:
How do I get a green address sign?
Reflective address markers are available for purchase. Help the fire department find you faster by making your home easily identifiable in the event of an emergency.
It is recommended that the green address sign be installed closest to the mouth of your driveway at the road on either an existing mailbox post or a separate post specifically for the sign. The sign must be visible from both directions of traffic on the road.
Return the order form with cash or a check for $15 payable to: Oakfield Township
