The Borough Planning Commission shall have access to the maps, files and other papers of the Borough, and if Council by motion, so decides, may keep on file all maps, plans and other pertinent material. Within the limitations prescribed and appropriations provided for the purpose, Council may, on motion, authorize changes and additions to be made to the maps and plans. The Commission may recommend such changes and additions as it may deem proper, but such recommendations shall not restrict the right of Council to initiate proceedings for the laying out and changing of highways and public places in the Borough. The Borough Planning Commission shall also serve as the Zoning Commission. It shall be known as the Lemoyne Borough Planning and Zoning Commission and it shall be considered as one commission and not as two separate commissions.
The Borough Planning and Zoning Commission shall further have all the powers and duties as conferred upon a Zoning Commission by the Pennsylvania Borough Code.[1]
