Borough Code of Ordinances

In 2004 the Borough codified all their ordinances into one book, which is available on-line at General Code’s web site.  The Code Book is updated at the end of every year to include that year’s newly adopted ordinances. To view the ordinances that have not yet been included, please review to the list below.
