Whenever this chapter shall set forth any time for an act to
be performed by or on behalf of the grantee, such time shall be deemed
of the essence, and any failure of the grantee to perform within the
time allotted shall always be sufficient ground for the Borough to
invoke an appropriate penalty, including possible revocation of the
franchise.
In any controversy or dispute under this chapter, the law of
the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania shall apply.
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or portion
of this chapter or the franchise agreement is for any reason held
invalid or unconstitutional by an court of competent jurisdiction,
or by any federal, state, or local statute or regulation, such portion
shall be deemed a separate, distinct and independent provision, and
such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions
thereof.
Ordinance No. 2-70 of the Code of Green Lane Borough, and all amendments thereto, and all previous ordinances, or parts thereof, in conflict with the provisions of this chapter are hereby repealed upon the effective date as defined in § 122-39 or upon the date of execution of a new franchise agreement with the grantee the current sole franchisee within the Borough, whichever shall last occur.
This chapter shall become effective five days after the date of enactment, subject to the provisions of § 122-38 herein.
