Ordinance No. 2014 proposes amendments to Chapters 41 and 42 of Houston's Code of Ordinances to consolidate and modernize regulations governing street naming and property addressing throughout the city. The ordinance transfers responsibility for assigning street numbers and property addresses from local electric utilities to the City of Houston, a function historically managed by utilities who have requested the handoff. The changes are intended to establish a uniform addressing system necessary for coordinated multi-jurisdictional public safety communications and to ensure every building, structure, lot, and tract of land has a unique identifier.
