Chapter 353 : Shopping Carts
No person shall make any shopping cart or carts available for use by customers for handling or carrying food, goods or other merchandise in or about any store or other business establishment unless the premises on which such store or other business establishment is located contains a corral, certified by the Borough Code Official to be sufficient to prevent the removal of any such shopping cart from such premises.
In the event of a violation of this section, the Borough Code Official shall issue a notice of violation, which shall require compliance within 10 days. Thereafter, the Borough Code Official shall issue summonses for violations of this chapter. In the event of conviction, the Municipal Court shall fine the offender $100 for the first offense; $250 for the second offense; and $500 for the third and all following offenses.
Whenever the Borough impounds or causes to be impounded a cart that has a sign or notice identifying the owner of the cart, or the retailer who has written consent from the owner to use the cart, and lists a valid telephone number or address through which the owner or retailer can be contacted, without meeting the conditions required in § 353-5 hereof, the Borough shall:
After the expiration of five business days as provided in § 353-6 hereof, a cart may be redeemed by the owner thereof at any time prior to the sale, dismantling, destruction or disposal thereof, and the owner shall be entitled to receive such cart upon payment of the sum of $25. No cart shall be delivered to a person seeking to redeem unless proof is submitted establishing to the satisfaction of the Borough such person's ownership or right to possession. Any delivery to a person deemed entitled thereto by the Borough from the proof submitted shall be an absolute defense of the Borough against any other person claiming to be entitled thereto.
