[Adopted 8-9-1993 by Ord. No. 1993-14 (Ch.
77, Art. III of the 1971 Code)]
No person, corporation or other entity shall
erect or maintain any basketball backstop or similar structure or
portion thereof that may be used for recreational purposes in such
a manner that the same extends upon or overhangs any street, alley
or other public right-of-way in the Borough of Palmyra.
A.
Any person, corporation or other entity violating
any provision of this article shall be subject to a fine not exceeding
$500 or imprisonment in the county jail not exceeding 90 days, or
both, and that portion of any basketball backstop or similar structure
overhanging any street, alley or any other public right-of-way may
be removed by the Borough as constituting a public nuisance; provided,
however, that before the Borough shall remove the same, the Borough
shall give 90 days' written notice to the owner of the property on
which the violation exists to remove the structure. If the owner fails
to remove the violation within the 90 days, the Borough may remove
the same and assess the cost of the removal against the owner in addition
to the fine called for by this subsection.
B.
A separate violation shall be deemed to be committed
on each day during or on which a violation occurs or continues.
C.
For violations of any of the provisions of this article,
complaints may be filed by citizens, the police, the Zoning Officer
