Emergency responders and pizza delivery drivers have something in common.

They both need to find you.

In the city of Butler, the two are teaming up to make sure each can do that easily by encouraging residents to properly number their homes. It’s a safety measure other communities are pushing as well.

Butler firefighters have created a flyer bearing an order form that residents can use to buy a $10 sign with reflective house numbers. The numbers are uniform in appearance. The flyer will go out with every box of pizza delivered by Fox’s Pizza in Butler.

About $6 from the sale of each sign will benefit the police and firefighter unions, said Lt. Donald Crawford.

“A lot of people don’t have their houses marked, and we can’t see where the call’s at,” Crawford said. “People who do have them marked, the numbers aren’t reflective, so it’s hard for us to find addresses. The numbers might be on there 20 or 30 years, and they blend right in.”
