[Ord. 286, 12/7/1982, § 1]
The Upper Montgomery Joint Authority (hereafter referred to
as "Authority"), by resolution dated June 1, 1982, has established
a procedure for authorizing sewer connections upon issuance by appropriate
Borough officials of a building permit and has limited each Borough
with the Authority's service areas to up to 30 EDUs per year from
and after March 19, 1982, noncumulatively. By this Part, the Borough
of Red Hill establishes standards for issuance of building permits
requiring sanitary sewer connections, in order that the public health
may be maintained, sources of pollution eliminated and orderly development
within the Borough may be fostered to the end that health hazards
be avoided, over-crowding and congestion eliminated and the general
welfare benefitted.
[Ord. 286, 12/7/1982, § 2]
Building permits requiring sanitary sewer connections shall
be issued, when requests for the same have been made for two or more
uses, in the following order:
A.
A use eliminating a public health hazard, so determined by the Borough
Building Inspector in consultation with appropriate authorities, both
local and State.
B.
A use eliminating a source of pollution, so determined by the Borough
Building Inspector in consultation with appropriate authorities, both
local and State.
C.
Connection of a facility of public need, as determined by Borough
Council.
D.
An addition to an existing single-family residence.
E.
An addition to an existing commercial use.

G.
An addition to an existing industrial unit.
H.
A new single-family residence.
I.
A new commercial use.
J.

K.
A new industrial use.
[Ord. 286, 12/7/1982, § 3]
In order that the right of all prospective applicants to be considered for building permits under § 18-202 hereof may be preserved, the following limits shall be placed upon the issuance of building permits requiring sanitary sewer connections:
A.
Not more than 25% of the annual number of EDU connections permitted
by the Authority may be expended in building permits issued through
March 31 of each calendar year.
B.
Not more than 50% of the annual number of EDU connections permitted
by the Authority, including those issued through March 31, may be
expended in building permits issued through June 30 of each calendar
year.
C.
Not more than 75% of the annual number of EDU connections permitted
by the Authority, including those issued through June 30, may be expended
in building permits issued through September 30 of each calendar year.
D.
The balance of EDU connections permitted by the Authority may be
issued prior to the end of the calendar year.
E.
In order for the priorities set forth in § 18-202 hereof to be adhered to, the Building Inspector may, if he deems it appropriate, hold all applications requiring sanitary sewer connections until he shall make determinations as to the issuance of permits on or prior to the dates set forth in subsections (A), (B), (C) and (D) hereof.
[Ord. 286, 12/7/1982, § 4]
The terms and provisions hereof shall in all cases be subject
to any provision to the contrary in the resolution of the Upper Montgomery
Joint Authority of June 1, 1982, or subsequent amendments thereto,
and the provisions of that resolution governing connection fee, procedures
and lapses shall be applicable to all permits issued or applied for
hereunder.
[Res. 2000-1, 2/9/2000, § 1]
In all cases where the application for a building permit involves
either a new connection to the sewer system or added flow to the existing
sewer system through an existing sewer connection, the applicant shall
present to the Borough prior to the issuance of a building permit
by this Borough a sewer construction permit issued by the Authority.
