§ 1-15 Fees not changed shall be same as preceding year.
[Adopted 12-20-2013 by Ord. No. 2013-798]
Pursuant to Section 3301.5 of the Borough Code (53 P.S. § 48301.5), the codification of a complete body of legislation for the Borough of Clarion, County of Clarion, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, as revised, codified and consolidated into chapters, articles and sections by General Code, and consisting of Chapters 1 through 210, together with an Appendix, is hereby approved, adopted, ordained and enacted as a single ordinance of the Borough of Clarion, which shall be known and is hereby designated as the "Code of the Borough of Clarion," hereinafter referred to as the "Code."
The provisions of this Code, insofar as they are substantively the same as those of ordinances and resolutions in force immediately prior to the enactment of this ordinance, are intended as a continuation of such ordinances and resolutions and not as new enactments, and the effectiveness of such provisions shall date from the date of adoption of the prior ordinance or resolution. All such provisions are hereby continued in full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed as to their adoption by the Borough Council of the Borough of Clarion, and it is the intention of said Borough Council that each such provision contained within the Code is hereby reenacted and reaffirmed as it appears in said Code. Only such provisions of former ordinances as are omitted from this Code shall be deemed repealed or abrogated by the provisions of § 1-3 below, and only new or changed provisions, as described in § 1-6 below, shall be deemed to be enacted from the effective date of this Code, as provided in § 1-17 below.
Repeal of inconsistent ordinances. Except as provided in § 1-4, Legislation saved from repeal; matters not affected by repeal, below, all ordinances or parts of ordinances inconsistent with the provisions contained in the Code adopted by this ordinance are hereby repealed as of the effective date given in § 1-17; provided, however, that such repeal shall only be to the extent of such inconsistency, and any valid legislation of the Borough of Clarion which is not in conflict with the provisions of the Code shall be deemed to remain in full force and effect.
Repeal of specific ordinances. The Borough Council of the Borough of Clarion has determined that the following ordinances are no longer in effect and hereby specifically repeals the following legislation:
Former Chapter 5, Article I, Clarion Area Authority, of the 1999 Code.
Any ordinance adopted subsequent to November 19, 2013.
Substantive changes and revisions. In addition to the changes and revisions described above, changes and revisions of a substantive nature, as set forth in Schedule A attached hereto and made a part hereof, are hereby made to various ordinances and resolutions included in the Code. These changes are enacted to bring provisions into conformity with the desired policies of the Borough Council, and it is the intent of the Borough Council that all such changes be adopted as part of the Code as if the legislation so changed had been previously formally amended to read as such. All such changes and revisions shall be deemed to be in effect as of the effective date of the Code specified in § 1-17.
It shall be unlawful for anyone to improperly change or amend, by additions or deletions, or to alter or tamper with the Code or any part or portion thereof in any manner whatsoever which will cause the law of the Borough to be misrepresented thereby. Any person who violates or permits a violation of this section of this ordinance shall, upon being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding, pay a fine of not more than $600, plus all court costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Borough in the enforcement of this chapter. No judgment shall be imposed until the date of the determination of the violation by the Magisterial District Judge. If the defendant neither pays nor timely appeals the judgment, the Borough may enforce the judgment pursuant to the applicable Rules of Civil Procedure. Each day a violation exists shall constitute a separate offense. Further, the appropriate officers or agents of the Borough are hereby authorized to seek equitable relief, including injunction, to enforce compliance herewith.
Clarion Borough Council shall set the fees mandated by the Code adopted herewith, by resolution, at the time that said Council shall enact its annual budget ordinance.
If Clarion Borough Council shall not set a fee regulated by the Code adopted herewith at the time that it enacts its annual budget ordinance, then in such case the fees which were in effect for the preceding year and not changed shall remain in effect for the subsequent year.
All provisions of this ordinance and of the Code shall be in force and effect on and after December 20, 2013.
