SECTION 509. Dedication.
In case of a street or alley through residential properties, at such time as ninety (90%) percent of the lots fronting on the street have received occupancy permits, or in the case of a street through commercial, industrial or other non-residential developments, when lots having ninety (90%) percent of the footage have received occupancy permits, the Developer may offer the Borough a deed of dedication, accompanied by a fee to cover recording costs and costs of preparing the Resolution of Acceptance and recording of the same. If the deed is found to be in proper order and there are no violations of any provision of this Ordinance, the Borough Council, may at its sole discretion, adopt a Resolution accepting the street or alley and or in applicable cases, drainage facility. No street or alley, or in applicable cases, drainage facility, shall be considered finally accepted by the Borough until the deed has been recorded and filed with the applicable offices for filing for Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Notwithstanding final acceptance of the street, alley or drainage facility, the developer shall remain responsible for maintenance of the same, snow removal excepted, for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of final acceptance.
