Editor's Note: Said agreement is on file in the Township
offices.
The agreement sets forth the terms pursuant to which the Allegheny

of the agreement and shall continue for 12 months thereafter with

The Oklahoma Borough Council will be paying Allegheny Township, Westmoreland
County, directly for services rendered and no financing of the agreement
shall be required.
No new organizational structure is necessary to implement the
agreement.
In accordance with the agreement, Oklahoma Borough will provide
the needed enforcement tools in order for Allegheny Township personnel
to perform such services and will include office supplies and access
to a computer for various code enforcement activities.
The agreement will require appointment of the Code Officer as
the official code officer of Oklahoma Borough, therefore requiring
said official to be included in the public officials liability policy
held by Oklahoma Borough for decisions and actions taking place within

benefits will be required by Oklahoma Borough. Rather, the employees
involved in this agreement shall be insured by their respective employers,
