Editor's Note: Said agreement is on file in the Township offices.
The agreement sets forth the terms pursuant to which the Allegheny Township Board of Supervisors and Oklahoma Borough Council shall work together to provide code enforcement services administered by Allegheny Township. The term of the agreement shall commence as of the date of the agreement and shall continue for 12 months thereafter with automatic renewals of one-year periods thereafter unless either party gives the other six months' written notice of its intent to terminate. The Oklahoma Borough Council will be paying Allegheny Township, Westmoreland County, directly for services rendered and no financing of the agreement shall be required.
In accordance with the agreement, Oklahoma Borough will provide the needed enforcement tools in order for Allegheny Township personnel to perform such services and will include office supplies and access to a computer for various code enforcement activities.
The agreement will require appointment of the Code Officer as the official code officer of Oklahoma Borough, therefore requiring said official to be included in the public officials liability policy held by Oklahoma Borough for decisions and actions taking place within Oklahoma Borough. No other policies of group insurance and employee benefits will be required by Oklahoma Borough. Rather, the employees involved in this agreement shall be insured by their respective employers, namely Allegheny Township, Westmoreland County.
