Editor's Note: The preamble to Ordinance 461 stated that
the northwest corner of the original plan of Beaver is a square named
"Clark Park", which for many years had been used as a burial ground,
and which in recent years had not been cared for and which had been
so neglected as to become a public nuisance, that the Borough, acting
under authority given to it by the Act of 1955 P.L. 279 No. 98, presented
a petition to the Court of Quarter Sessions of Beaver County on July
27, 1960, praying the Court to make an order authorizing the Borough
to improve and maintain the burial ground, which order was made by
the Court on September 26, 1960, and the work had been completed by
the Borough; that in order to comply with the order of Court and select
a name suitable for the park, it was necessary that the Borough adopt
certain rules and regulations.
[Ord. 461, 10/10/1961, § 2]
No future burials shall be permitted in that park, and that
it be used solely as a memorial park.
[Ord. 461, 10/10/1961, § 3]
The park shall be seeded and landscaped and the proper kind
and number of trees be planted on it.
[Ord. 461, 10/10/1961, § 4]
No ball playing or other athletic sports shall be permitted
in this park.
[Ord. 461, 10/10/1961, § 4]
The park shall be maintained by the Borough as other public
parks are maintained.
[Ord. 461, 10/10/1961, § 6; as amended by Ord.
621, 12/14/1983]
Any person, firm or corporation who shall violate any provision
of this Part 2 shall, upon conviction thereof, be sentenced to pay
a fine of not more than $300; and/or to imprisonment for a term not
to exceed 90 days.
