				Class Township Code, the Second Class Township Code, a uniform procedural code
				relating to all classes of local government and all temporary or permanent
				supplements or amendments to the aforementioned codes-referred to in the act of
				July 9, 1976 (P. L. 909, No. 164)(46 P. S. §§
										431.2a and
				431.2b) are compilations of
				laws relative to the administration of various units of government. As such,

				administrative personnel, and others involved in the operation, evaluation, or

Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
Since copies of the codes represent a substantial cost to the
				  taxpayer, the following criteria for distribution shall apply:
(1) An initial distribution of all newly
				updated codes will be made as required by the act without legislators'
				imprimatur.
(2) All requests for
				copies, excluding the initial distribution, shall be in writing, and shall
				indicate title or affiliation of the requested recipient.
(3) Copies will be the property of the
				office, not the individual holding the office, and the title page of the code
				will so state.
(4) Except for the
				initial distribution, each copy of the code will contain a dated "update
				subscription" form. Updates will automatically be furnished only to those
				returning that form, except that updates will automatically be sent to those
				receiving the initial distribution.
(5) The Local Government Commission will
				maintain a distribution file, including written requests. No copies of a code
				will be sent if the Local Government Commission records show that a copy has
				been supplied within 1 year from date of request unless special permission is
				given by the Local Government Commission.
(6) Legislators requesting copies of codes
				for distribution must include the name, address, and office, if any, of the
				proposed recipient. If proposed recipient is not an officeholder, reason for
				request and any pertinent affiliation must be indicated. If the Local
				Government Commission records show proposed recipient has a copy, legislator
				will be so advised; if not, requested copies will be stamped with legislator's
				signature and sent or given to the legislator, if requested, for
				distribution.
