The Borough Council has determined that it is
in the best interest of the Borough and its residents to provide for
mutual aid with adjacent municipalities to prepare for emergencies
and to provide mutual aid services during emergencies. The same is
to be provided by an Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement for Reciprocal
Emergency Management Assistance, a copy of which is on file at the
Borough office and made a part hereof. The parties to said agreement
shall be New Salem Borough, North Codorus Township, Codorus Township,
Heidelberg Township, Jefferson Borough, Seven Valleys Borough and
Manheim Township.
The said Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement
for Reciprocal Emergency Management Assistance provides for the financing,
organization, and all other terms and provisions regarding the mutual
aid. The ownership of emergency services equipment and other property
to be used with regard to this mutual aid will remain with the municipality
which owns the same.
The President of Borough Council and the Borough
Secretary are hereby authorized to execute and deliver said Intergovernmental
Cooperation Agreement for Reciprocal Emergency Management Assistance
under the terms and for the purposes as stated therein.
