Short title. This chapter shall be known and be cited as the "Riverside Borough Zoning Ordinance of 2010."
It is hereby declared to be the legislative intent that if a court of competent jurisdiction declares any provisions of this chapter to be invalid or ineffective, in whole or in part, the effect of such decision shall be limited to those provisions which are expressly stated in the decision to be invalid or ineffective, and all other provisions of this chapter shall continue to be separately and fully effective. The Borough Council hereby declares that it would have passed this chapter and each section or part thereof, other than any part declared invalid, if it had advance knowledge that any part would be declared invalid. If the entire chapter should be declared invalid, then the Riverside Borough Zoning Ordinance that was in effect immediately prior to the enactment of this new chapter shall automatically be reinstated as the Zoning Ordinance for Riverside Borough.
Allegations that this chapter or any amendment was enacted in a procedurally defective manner shall be appealed as provided in state law and be filed not later than 30 days after the intended effective date of this chapter or amendment.
The preexisting Riverside Borough Zoning Ordinance, as amended, is hereby repealed, in addition to the repeal of any other Borough ordinances or resolutions or parts thereof that were adopted prior to this chapter that are clearly in direct conflict with this chapter.
Under the authority conferred by the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code,[1] as amended, the Borough Council of Riverside Borough hereby enacts and ordains into an ordinance the attached document this date of December 27, 2010. This chapter shall become effective in five calendar days.
