To establish a procedure to issue of violation tickets as opposed
to citations to allow a citizen who admits that he has committed the
violation that he/she has been charged with to pay the ticket as opposed
to engage in the costly and protracted proceedings before a Magisterial
District Judge.
The provisions of the article shall be enforced by any Code
Enforcement Officer(s) of the Borough. The Borough by resolution can
add or remove an addition officer(s) to enforce this article.

A violator in receipt of a violation ticket shall have 10 days
from the date of the ticket to pay the amount of the fine noted on
the ticket. Failure to pay the fine within 10 days as stated hereinabove
shall result in the issuance of a criminal citation for the offense
as enumerated on the ticket before a Magisterial District Judge having
jurisdiction over matters involving Plymouth Borough.
The provisions of this article are severable, and if any section,
clause, sentence, part or provision hereof shall be held illegal,
invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction,
such decision of that court shall not affect, impair or invalidate
any of the remaining sections, clauses, sentences, parts or provisions
of this article. It is the intent of the Borough by this article would
have been adopted without such illegal, invalid or unconstitutional
provision.
