The regular meetings of the Council of the Borough of Waterford
shall be held on the first Monday of each month at 7:00 p.m., in the
Waterford Municipal Building. Whenever the first Monday of any month
shall be a legal holiday, the regular meeting shall be the next date
mutually agreed upon and duly advertised.
Special meeting of Council may be called and held as provided
by the Borough Code and any other law governing the subject.
The President of Council, in addition to exercising his authority
to preside over the meetings of Council, and to perform the other
specific powers and duties vested in him by law or ordinance, shall
be required to authenticate, with his signature, all actions taken
by Council.
The Council hereby adopts, as its parliamentary authority, the
volume entitled "Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised," which
shall govern all matters within the purview of that volume, except
that conflicting provisions in the Borough Code or other applicable
statues of Pennsylvania, or in these bylaws or in the Rules of Order
of the Council of the Borough of Waterford shall supersede the provisions
of the parliamentary authority on the same subject matter.
These bylaws, wholly or in part, may be amended or repealed
by an affirmative vote of 2/3 of all members of the Borough Council,
following advance notice to each member at least 28 days before the
meeting at which action on amendment or repeal is to be taken. The
notice shall state the extent and precise nature of the repeal or
amendment that is proposed. If notice is given at a regular, special
or adjourned meeting of the Council, held at least 28 days before
the meeting at which action on repeal or amendment is to be taken,
special or individual notice shall be required to be given only to
those members not in attendance at the earlier meeting and present
at the time notice was given.
