Council forms borough code modernization committee to update aging ordinances
Summary
Council voted to create a code modernization committee to review and recommend updates to outdated ordinance language and references; Councilor Marcus proposed the committee and nominated two council members to serve.
Councilor Marcus proposed formation of a borough code modernization committee, saying the goal is not to rewrite the entire code but to update outdated references (for example, vendor names and police‑department language) and to remove provisions that could cause unintended enforcement issues.
Marcus recommended Councilwoman Shearer and Councilwoman Flegal for the committee and said the group would consult borough staff, the solicitor and engineering as needed before returning recommendations to council. The motion was seconded and approved on a voice vote. "I'm not proposing that we rewrite the entire borough code," Marcus said, framing the effort as targeted corrections and updates.
