PROCEDURES & STANDARDS
13-401, Road designations.
Designation of new roads within the unincorporated areas of Bonner County shall be in accordance with the following guidelines:
(1) All named roads that extend from incorporated areas into unincorporated areas shall retain the same name.
(2) Roads which have a definite north-south directional course should be designated as an avenue. Roads which have a definite east-west directional course should be designated a street.
(3) Roads which do not have a definite directional course shall be assigned a designation at the discretion of the Address Administrator.
(4) A dead end road or cul-de-sac less than one thousand feet (1,000') in length, when not an extension of an existing road or a continuation of a proposed road, should be called a court.
(5) A road that has its ingress and egress on the same road shall be designated a loop.
(6) A road that circles back upon itself shall be designated as a circle.
(7) Special scenic routes or park drives may be designated parkway upon review and approval by the Address Administrator.
(8) When a proposed road is in general alignment with an existing road, and the proposed road is planned to be a continuation of the existing road, the existing name and designation should be maintained given no conflict with Section 13-410 of this Chapter.
(9) Duplicate road names are prohibited. Existing duplicated names should be corrected in accordance with this chapter.
13-410, Addressing procedures.
(a) General Procedures. All address numbers shall conform to the addressing system outline by this Title. The general standards to be used in developing an address are as follows:
(1) The address system shall be based on a mileage system by measuring to the 1000th of a mile. The point of beginning for each road shall be at the point of take-off from another road (Example: if the measurement from the beginning of the road (Sunnyside RD) to a driveway is 1.568 miles, the address would be 1568 Sunnyside RD).
(2) Addressing for state highways shall be based on mile markers. (Example: if a driveway is on Highway 2 and it is between mile marker 18 and 19 and the measurement from mile marker 18 to the driveway is 0.425 miles, the address for this driveway is 18425 Highway 2)
(3) A standard of one thousand (1000) addressing units per mile is hereby established.
(4) Even numbers shall be used on west and south sides of the road, and odd numbers should be used on the east and north sides.
(b) Roads.
(1) If a building has a number of entrances, each serving separate occupants, then the building shall be assigned an address and the individual units assigned unit numbers. (Example: 24 Birch RD, Suite 3)
(2) An addressing scheme for multi-family dwelling structures shall be approved by the Address Administrator that is in accord with the standards and guidelines outlined in 13-120(4). In general, a multi-family dwelling structure with one (1) main entrance should be assigned one (1) number with the owner of the structure responsible for providing designated individual numbering of each unit before an address will be issued to the structure. (Example: 15864 Maas Loop, APT 101). In some cases where there are several multi-family dwelling structures sharing one main access, it may be necessary to name the streets within the complex and provide individual street numbers to the buildings. This determination will be made by the Address Administrator on a case-by- case basis.
(3) An addressing scheme for mobile home parks structures shall be approved by the Address Administrator that is in accord with E-9-1-1 addressing standards. In general, mobile home parks should have names for the streets within the complex and individual street numbers should be assigned by the County for each mobile home space. Alphanumeric combinations shall not be used for numbering individual spaces.
(4) If a road or driveway accesses three (3) or more properties, it shall be assigned a road name and the parcels shall be addressed in accordance with this Title.
(5) Parcels with structure(s), or bare land parcels, which are accessed by a driveway, shall be assigned an address at the point where the driveway intersects a named road.
(6) The street name and address for any dwelling should be determined by the street on which the dwelling fronts. However, in those instances where access is from a different street and the dwelling is not visible from the fronting street, or if the dwelling is not readily accessible to emergency personnel from the fronting street, the street name and address will be assigned based on the access street.
(7) For parcels that are accessed by multiple driveways, the owner shall designate a Primary Access Point that will be used for address assignment. Such access points are subject to review and approval of the County to ensure that they are accessible to emergency service providers. If the property owner does not designate a primary access point, the County shall make the official determination to allow the proper addressing of the property.
(8) Circular and Loop roads should begin numbering at the low numbered intersection, with odd and even numbers following the set standard.
(9) For circle roads, the numbering should begin at its origin and proceed in a counter-clockwise direction around the circle using a consecutive numerical order and odd/even numbers consistent with the beginning of the road as if the road were straight.
(10) Parcels served by a common driveway that access two (2) parcels should be assigned an address at the point where the access intersects a public or private road or named common driveway. Each property shall be assigned a different address. If the county issues multiple addresses to a parcel pursuant to this section, the county may also require that the common driveway be named in the same manner as private roads.
(11) Fractional addresses (5698 _ Happy Trail Road) and Hyphenated address numbers (632-58 Kennedy) shall not be used.
(12) Parcels with multiple structures will be addressed on a case-by-case basis.
(c) Waterfront.
(1) A shoreline distance based system may be used by the emergency service agencies to assign numerical points to facilitate emergency responses. These marine response identification numbers shall not be used as addresses except for those parcels that do not have any access other than by water.
(2) Marine response identification numbers should be based on a shoreline distance measurement. Starting points shall be established at a readily identified point on the waterbody and numbered consecutively. Odd and even numbers may occur along the same shore.
13-420 Road naming standards.
(a) It is hereby established that the following rules and regulations for the naming of roads shall apply. All official road names shall be assembled in the Bonner County Road Name List. Additions and amendments to the list shall be made by the Address Administrator. All new road names or changes to names shall be established in accordance with the standards and procedures hereinafter set forth. If possible surnames should not be used.
(b) The following standards shall be used in determining and approving road names:
(1) All proposed road names shall be submitted to the Address Administrator for review and approval.
(2) Road names should be easy to communicate (e.g., across electronic communication devices) and shall not be offensive to the standards of good taste.
(3) There shall be no duplication of names by sound or spelling (Example: Briar Road, Brier Road).
(4) Variations of the same name with a different road designation shall be prohibited within the first word of the two-word title or in the road extension (Example: Pine Road, Pine Drive, White Pine Road, White Lilly Lane).
(5) When a proposed road is in general alignment with an existing road, and the proposed road is or planned to be a continuation of the existing road, the existing name and designation should be maintained.
(6) Where a proposed Street connects, or aligns with, two different streets each having different names, the Address Administrator shall decide the name to be used, giving consideration to the length, classification, period of usage and number of residents affected.
Both "L" shaped and "T" shaped roads should carry the same name if either leg is one hundred feet (100') or less in length. "L-shaped" and "T" shaped roads over 100 feet in length each should carry a different name on each leg of the "L" or the "T". This determination shall be made on a case-by-case basis.
(7) In general, road names should consist of no more than three (3) words or contain over sixteen (16) letters in length including spaces, unless otherwise approved by the Address Administrator. The road direction (N, S, E, W) and designation (e.g., street, lane, court, etc.) is not included. All names should conform to this limitation except where existing names are to be continued due to alignments.
(8) There shall be no duplication of existing names. Bonner County shall assemble, update, and maintain an official list of all road names throughout the County for use by all jurisdictions.
(9) No road shall have more than one name.
(10) No road name shall contain the words North, South, East, or West, or any combination thereof, within the road name.
13-430, New roads or existing unnamed roads.
(a) Any new road to be established within the county, public or private, or any existing unnamed road, public or private, shall require a road name approved by the Address Administrator.
(b) In the case of plats, approved road names shall be specified on the final plat map.
(c) In the case of other new roads or naming of unnamed roads, the owner or owners and/or contract buyers of properties abutting said road may petition, in writing on a form provided by the county, to the Address Administrator, a request to officially name a road.
(1) If the owners present a petition bearing the signatures of at least fifty one percent (51%) of the property owners (excluding federal, state, public utilities and municipal lands) whose properties abut the road, the road shall be officially named. Property owners who own more than one property abutting a road shall only have one vote. The Address Administrator shall notify by first class mail all property owners along the road. Tax assessment records shall be used for owner address information.
(2) If the petition bears the signatures of less than fifty one percent (51%) of the owners whose property abuts the road, the name shall be temporary. Property owners shall have thirty (30) days to respond. If there is no response from the property owner during the thirty (30) day period, the county shall consider this as an approval by the property owner. The Address Administrator shall give due consideration to any and all road name petitions, only after all road naming requirements of this chapter are met. The Address Administrator shall officially designate the road name having the greatest percentage of approval in the event a fifty one percent (51%) approval is not obtained.
(d) In cases where the property owners have not petitioned, as outlined in subsection C of this section, the Address Administrator shall choose an unduplicated road name. Notice shall be given to the property owners by first class mail. Tax assessment records shall be used for owner address information. Property owners shall have thirty (30) days to respond with their appeal if they dispute the chosen name. If no adverse response from more than fifty one percent (51%) of the ownership is received within the thirty (30) day period, the Address Administrator shall officially name the road. Roads named pursuant to section 13-450 of this chapter are exempt from this requirement.

(3) Other factors as deemed appropriate by the Address Administrator.
(4) When a road name within the unincorporated area of the county is duplicated by a road name within a city, the county shall work with the city to decide which road shall be renamed. Roads shall be renamed in accordance with the procedures outlined in subsection 13-430(d) of this section.
(b) Renaming Other Roads: In cases where property owners request to change the name of a road which has an existing county approved name, the property owners may petition the county in the same manner as outlined in subsection 13-430(c) of this chapter. Property owner initiated requests under this section shall require seventy five percent (75%) approval of property owners abutting the road and the payment of an applicable fee and any other costs incurred. Road names shall not be changed more frequently than once every five (5) years.
