When the Borough of its own volition, or because of sufficient
requests from owners of properties on both sides of the street, decides
to permanently pave a street, 1/3 of the cost shall be borne by the
Borough and the remaining 2/3 shall be assessed against the abutting
property owners on a foot-front basis.
When the Borough, upon the request of the owners of properties
along one side of the street, decides to permanently pave a street,
1/6 of the cost shall be borne by the Borough, 3/6 by the property
owners requesting the paving, and 2/6 by the property owners on the
other side of the street, all on a foot-front basis.
Curbing shall be required along both sides of the street before
such permanent paving shall begin.
Nothing in this article shall be construed to conflict with the provisions of Chapter
347, Subdivision and Land Development, requiring the developers of subdivisions to pay the entire cost of paving streets laying entirely within their developments.
Nothing in this article shall be construed to restrict the right
of the Borough to levy assessments for the cost of permanent paving
in any other manner which it deems fair and equitable, or to collect
such assessments by any method other than the foot-front mile permitted
by law.
