A.
Power to amend. The regulations set forth in this chapter may be
amended by the Board of Supervisors.
B.
Procedure.
(1)
Proposed amendments must be submitted to the Planning Commission
for its recommendation.
(2)
The written recommendations of the Planning Commission shall
be submitted to the Board of Supervisors. Failure to submit such reports
within 45 days shall constitute approval.
(3)
Upon receipt of the recommendations of the Planning Commission
a public hearing pursuant to public notice on the proposed amendment
shall be held, at which time the parties in interest and citizens
shall have an opportunity to be heard.
Any person, partnership or corporation who or which has violated
or permitted the violation of the provisions of this chapter shall,
upon being found liable therefor in a civil enforcement proceeding
commenced by the Township, pay a judgment of not more than $500, plus
all court costs, including reasonable attorney fees incurred by the
Township as a result thereof. No judgment shall commence or be imposed,
levied or be payable until the date of the determination of a violation
by the District Justice. If the defendant neither pays nor timely
appeals the judgment, the Township may enforce the judgment pursuant
to the applicable rules of civil procedure. Each day that a violation
continues shall constitute a separate violation, unless the District
Justice determining that there has been a violation further determines
that there was a good-faith basis for the person, partnership or corporation
violating the chapter to have believed that there was no such violation,
in which event there shall be deemed to have been only one such violation
until the fifth day following the date of the determination of a violation
by the District Justice. Thereafter, each day that a violation continues
shall constitute a separate violation. All judgments, costs and reasonable
attorney fees collected for the violation of this chapter shall be
paid over to the Township.
In any case where the Board of Supervisors shall disapprove
a preliminary plan or a final plan, any person aggrieved may, within
30 days of the action, appeal therefrom by petition to court in accordance
with the Municipalities Planning Code.
