There is hereby established a Shade Tree Commission for the

Borough who shall be appointed by the Mayor and shall serve without
compensation. For the first Commission, the Mayor shall appoint one
member for a term of three years, one member for a term of four years
and one member for a term of five years. Thereafter, on the expiration
of the term of any member, a successor shall be appointed by the Mayor
to serve for a term of five years. Vacancies in the Commission shall
be filled by persons appointed by the Mayor for the unexpired term.
A.
The Shade Tree Commission shall have exclusive custody and control
of the shade trees in the Borough and is authorized to plant, remove,
maintain and protect shade trees on the public highways in the Borough.
B.
The Commission may employ and pay such superintendents, engineers,
foresters, tree wardens or other assistants as the proper performance
of the duties devolving upon it shall require and may make, publish
and enforce regulations for the care and protection of the shade trees
of the Borough. No such regulation shall be in force until it has
been approved by Council and until it has been published at least
twice in not more than two newspapers of general circulation published
in the Borough or, if no newspapers are published in the Borough,
then in newspapers circulating in the Borough.
The Shade Tree Commission shall report annually, in full, to
the Mayor, its expenses and transactions for the preceding fiscal
year of the Borough.
The Shade Tree Commission shall be constituted as provided by
law and shall perform all the duties and may exercise all the powers
conferred by law upon borough shade tree commissions.
