Staff: borough code enforcement is complaint‑driven; voluntary compliance preferred

During questions on RZ2026‑008, planning staff outlined how the borough handles nonconforming uses and code enforcement. Kellen Spellman explained that enforcement is complaint‑driven: staff seek voluntary compliance first, encouraging owners to submit plans to return a property to single‑family use (removing kitchens, relocating entrances) and will issue citations only if voluntary measures fail. He said, "the simple answer is nothing" occurs absent a complaint, and that the borough relies on a graduated enforcement approach culminating in legal referral when necessary.
