At any hearing, the person against whom the charges are made may
be present in person and by counsel. The Borough Council may suspend
the person, without pay, pending the determination of the charges
against the person, but in the event the Commission fails to uphold
the charges, then the person sought to be suspended, removed or reduced
in rank shall be reinstated with full pay for the period during which
the person was suspended, removed or reduced in rank, and no charges
shall be officially recorded against the person's record. A stenographic
record of all testimony taken at the hearings shall be filed with,
and preserved by, the Commission, which record shall be sealed and
not be available for public inspection in the event the charges are
dismissed.
