Summary
Council introduced Ordinance 0-26-9 to expand sidewalk rules to include 'damages' and curbs, requiring property owners to replace sidewalks/curbs within six days to borough standards; public hearing set for March 18.
On March 4 the council introduced Ordinance 0-26-9, an amendment to Ordinance 18-6.9 that would require property owners who remove or damage an existing sidewalk or curb to replace it within six days to borough standards and to the Borough Engineer's approval. The change adds "damages" as a trigger for enforcement and extends the ordinance's scope to curbs.
Councilman Bray moved introduction and Councilman Penta seconded. The measure was approved for introduction and a public hearing was scheduled for March 18 at 6:30 p.m. at Borough Hall. The ordinance text includes an instruction that replacement work meet borough standards and be reviewed by the Borough Engineer.
