The mayor shall determine by decree the dimensions and model of the building number plates, the number to be assigned to each building and the dimensions and location of the spaces that owners reserve on their buildings to accommodate the said plates.

The maintenance and replacement of these plates shall be the responsibility of the owners and failing this, after formal notice has been given to them by the mayor, the municipality shall provide for this, but at the expense and risk of the defaulting owners.

Article R2512-8

Le maire fixe par arrêté les dimensions et le modèle des plaques indicatrices des numéros d’immeubles, le numéro à affecter à chaque immeuble ainsi que les dimensions et la situation des emplacements que les propriétaires réservent sur leurs immeubles pour recevoir lesdites plaques.

L’entretien et le remplacement de ces plaques sont à la charge des propriétaires et à défaut, après mise en demeure de ceux-ci par le maire, la commune y pourvoit, mais aux frais et aux risques des propriétaires défaillants.
