Borough Council shall commence a hearing thereon within 60 days of the submission of a properly completed request following procedures outlined in Article
VI, Section 609.1 of the Pennsylvania Municipalities Planning Code, as amended.
In the case of an amendment other than one prepared
by the Planning Commission, Borough Council shall submit each such
amendment to the Borough Planning Commission and the Bucks County

to provide the Planning Commission an opportunity to submit recommendations.
Within 30 days after enactment, a copy of the amendment shall be forwarded
