Where a regulation would cause unique and undue hardship as it applied to a particular subdivider's property, the Planning Commission may grant the subdivider a variance from the strict application of the regulation, if the variation will not nullify the objectives of these subdivision regulations. In granting a variance, the Planning Commission may impose conditions that will substantially secure the objectives of the regulation that is varied.
A. 
Improvements. The final responsibility for installation of improvements rests with the subdivider. Upon installation of these improvements, the subdivider shall take the final steps to dedicate the improvements to the municipality and have them accepted.
B. 
Offer of dedication. Recording the final plan after approval has the effect of an irrevocable offer to dedicate all streets and other public areas to public use. The offer to dedicate streets, parks or other areas, or portions of them, does not impose any duty upon the municipality concerning maintenance or improvement until the proper authorities of the municipality have made actual appropriation by ordinance or resolution, by entry or improvement. Any streets or public areas not being dedicated to the municipality, or any conditions attached to the dedications shall be noted on the plan to be recorded.
For any replatting or resubdivision of land, the same procedures and regulations apply as prescribed for an original subdivision except as follows. Lot sizes may be varied on an approved plan after recording, if all of the following conditions are met:
A. 
No lot or tract of land created or sold is smaller than the size as shown on the approved plan.
B. 
Drainage easements or rights-of-way are not changed.
C. 
Street alignments and block sizes are not changed.
D. 
The rear portions of lots are not subdivided from the front part.
E. 
The character of the area is maintained.
In any case where a provision of this chapter is found to be in conflict with the provision of a zoning, building, fire, safety or health ordinance or code of this municipality or law, rule or regulation of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the provision which establishes the higher standard for the promotion and protection of the health and safety of the people shall prevail. In any case where a provision of this chapter is found to be in conflict with the provisions of another ordinance or code of this municipality or law, rule or regulation of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania which establishes a lower standard for the promotion and protection of the health and safety of the people, the provisions of this chapter shall be deemed to prevail, and such other ordinances or codes are hereby declared to be repealed to the extent that they may be found in conflict with this chapter.
The Borough Council, upon the recommendation of the Planning Commission, or upon its own motion may amend, supplement, or repeal any of these regulations after public notice and hearing in accordance with applicable statutory provision.
Any owner, or agent of the owner, of any land located within a subdivision, who sells, transfers, or agrees to sell, any land by reference to, or exhibition of, or by other use of a plan of a subdivision, before the same has been approved by the County Planning Commission shall, upon summary conviction thereof, be sentenced to pay a fine of not more than $100, and the cost of prosecution for each lot or parcel transferred or sold or agreed to be sold. The description of such lot or parcel by metes and bounds in the instrument of transfer, or other document used in the process of selling or transferring, shall not exempt the transaction from such penalties, or from the remedies herein provided.
A. 
Plan submission. The municipality shall transmit to the County Planning Commission, for their review before formal approval by the municipality, one copy of each subdivision plan received and one copy of all supporting documents required.
B. 
County review. The Planning Commission shall review the plans and submit a report advising the municipality of its recommendations within 20 days. The municipality may proceed to final action on the plans if no report is received within 20 days.
