On Dec. 17, the borough assembly approved ordinance #2018-18, which is the borough’s updated development code, in its third reading after approving and denying amendments to the updated code made by community members.

The assembly went through each of the 19 amendments to the updated development code one-by-one and voted either to approve or deny the change to the code. A recommendation from staff and borough attorney comments were featured on the amendments to help assembly members make a decision.

Amendments one through three all passed as they were written and presented to the assembly.
