GENERAL REFERENCES
Animals — See Ch. 85.
This chapter shall be known and entitled the
"Bethlehem Township Rules and Regulations for Township Parks."
This chapter is enacted pursuant to the authority
granted to First Class Townships pursuant to § 1502 (cl.
I, II) of the First Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 56502,
as amended, § 1502 (cl. IX) of the First Class Township
Code, 53 P.S. § 56509, as amended, § 1502 (cl.
X) of the First Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 56510, as
amended, § 1502 (cl. XXVI) of the First Class Township Code,
53 P.S. § 56526, as amended, § 1502 (cl. XLIV)
of the First Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 56544, as amended,
§ 3001 of the First Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 58001,
as amended, § 3009 of the First Class Township Code, 53
P.S. § 58009, as amended, § 3012 of the First
Class Township Code, 53 P.S. § 58012, as amended, and pursuant
to such other police powers which may be lawfully exercised by First
Class Townships.
This chapter is declared to be an exercise of
the police power of the Township of Bethlehem and its provisions shall
be liberally construed for the preservation and protection of the
natural environment, public peace, health, safety and welfare. The
Township of Bethlehem finds as follows and declares that this chapter
is passed in response to the following facts:
A.
Unlawful and inappropriate behavior in the parks of
the Township diminishes these precious assets and deprives citizens
of the full use and enjoyment of the natural beauty, recreational
opportunities and peaceful repose that parks are intended to preserve
in a suburban setting.
B.
In addition to more serious criminal acts that threaten
personal injury and property damage, a wide range of illegal disorderly
behavior can transform a park into an unwelcoming, unattractive and
ultimately unsafe public space requiring increased expenditures for
public safety and maintenance.
C.
The laws intended to preserve and protect the parks
for the benefit of all are effective only if those who use the parks
obey the law. The current criminal and civil penalties for violating
the law are frequently inadequate alone to deter illegal behavior,
prevent its recurrence or provide for the removal of the offender
from the park.
D.
Compliance with the law, including the rules and regulations
set forth herein, will be enhanced by the immediate administrative
sanction of excluding from Township parks those who violate the law.
The following words and terms shall, for the
purpose of this chapter, have the meanings set forth herein:
The Board of Commissioners of the Township.
To remain overnight, to erect a tent or other shelter or
to use sleeping equipment, a vehicle or a trailer camper for the purpose
of or in such a way as will permit remaining overnight.

and control of the Manager, shall have the power to enforce the provisions
of this chapter. The Manager and the Director, under the direction
and control of the Manager, and in conjunction with the authority
granted by the Board of Commissioners to the Parks and Recreation

of a park. This prohibition shall not apply to wheeled equipment by
a person with a disability, who uses such wheeled equipment in order
to be ambulatory. It is Township policy that restrictions or prohibitions
on the use of recreational equipment on a surface that is paved or
improved for travel be imposed only to the extent appropriate to preserve
the park from damage and/or avoid impairing the use and enjoyment
of the park by others. Bicycles are permitted within the areas designated
by the Manager as constituting the Bethlehem Township Bike Path, the
Bethlehem Township Towpath/Canal Trail and the Greenway.
[Amended 12-17-2012 by Ord. No. 11-12]
H.
Impose a speed limit on use of any or all park paths,
trails and walks, improved or unimproved. Such speed limit may apply
to pedestrians and/or those persons using roller-skates, skateboards,
coasters, bicycles, carts or any similar device or conveyance.
A.
Establishment of permit system. The Manager may establish
a permit system and require a permit for:
(1)
Reserving any room or part of a community center,
play or athletic field, pavilion, picnic facility or other defined
area of a park for a certain time or series of times and granting
the exclusive use thereof during the time reserved.
(2)
Posting any signs, posters or notices, placing or
erecting any structure or obstruction of any kind within a park, whether
temporary or permanent, engaging in any competitions involving a vehicle,
boat or aircraft, or launching or landing aircraft, rockets or other
airborne conveyance or cutting or removing any tree or plant material.
(3)
Making any improvement to or in a park or construction
a public work.
(4)
Conducting a commercial activity, using any outdoor
electrical power outlet, laying cables or extending wires in or over
a park or using any park or facility during the hours it is closed
to the public.
(5)
Making any use of a park or recreational facility
for an event that differs in kind from the use and enjoyment of the
park or recreational facilities by the general public of the premises.
B.
Permit exemptions. No permit is required of Township
employees acting in the scope and course of their official duties.
Exemptions may be made for abutting owners, who maintain park boulevards,
with respect to the area maintained, for concessionaires as to the
area under concession and as to governmental officials acting under
authority of law.
C.
Permit fees and refunds. Issuance of a permit shall
be subject to payment of such fees or charges as may be established,
from time to time, by ordinance or resolution of the Board of Commissioners.
The Manager is authorized to make refunds of fees upon timely cancellation
of an event or activity and to return all or any portion of any security
deposit when no longer needed or after costs that may be charged against
the permit have been paid.
D.
Permitted signs. A permit for an event may authorize
the placing of temporary signs, posters or notices reasonably related
thereto. All permits shall be wholly of a temporary nature, shall
vest no permanent right and may be revoked upon 10 days notice or,
if the permit so states, upon shorter notice.
E.
Permit terms and conditions. The Manager may impose
such terms and conditions on the issuance of any permit as he or she
deems appropriate to protect the health, safety and welfare of the
public and/or the park, to avoid or limit unnecessary interference
with other uses or users of the park, to minimize disturbance of the
surrounding neighborhood and to require the use to leave the area
under permit in a condition after the activity or event as it was
beforehand. For this purpose, the Manager may require the user to
furnish public liability and property insurance, naming the Township
as an additional insured, in such amounts as reasonably necessary
to provide recompense for personal injury or death or property damage
to a member of the public as a result of the event or activity, execute
an indemnity and/or hold harmless agreement and/or make a reasonable
security deposit or provide a bond. The terms and conditions of a
permit (including providing insurance and/or security deposit) shall
not infringe upon rights of petition, assembly or free expression
protected by the First Amendment of the United States Constitution
and/or provisions of the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
If an applicant asserts that a term or condition proposed by the Manager
infringes upon a constitutional right, the Manager shall have the
burden of showing that the proposed term or condition is a reasonable
restriction on the time, place and manner of exercising the right
and is valid.
F.
No person under the age of 18 shall be issued a permit.
