  Borough Ordinances
The Borough Code is amended through the use of Borough Ordinances. In order for an ordinance to be adopted, the measure to enact a said ordinance needs to be approved by Borough Council. Thereafter, 2 readings of the formal ordinance needs to be passed and then signed by the Mayor. All ordinances need to be advertised to the public.
Beginning in 2000, all ordinances were numbered according to the following system:

YEAR-ORDINANCE NUMBER.

For example, the Dog Act of 2001 is numbered 2001-8, for the year, 2001 and #8 - the eighth ordinance passed in the year 2001.

Note: For copies of ordinances not available on this web site, please visit the borough office.

Borough Resolutions do not change sections of the Borough Code and are rather simply resolutions established by Borough Council. These resolutions can be addressed and approved at one regularly schedule meeting, and do not require prior public notice.
