of said office or place of business shall always be kept at 70°

The provisions of §

No house, apartment, rooms, or building shall be let, leased,
or occupied by human beings which is infested with vermin. The owner,

Board, shall immediately proceed to rid said place of said vermin
by any reasonable and safe means approved by this Board.
This Board shall have the right to condemn any building or part
thereof as unfit for human habitation whenever conditions detrimental
to health exist therein, whether such condemnation be for insanitation,
overcrowding of persons or for other reasons detrimental to health.
Whenever this Board shall condemn any building or part thereof

the grounds for such condemnation and commanding all persons therein
to vacate the same within the time specified in said notice, not exceeding
10 days from the date thereof, or in case of special emergency, within
such shorter time as in said notice may be specified. A copy of said
notice shall be served upon the occupants of such building and upon
the owner, agent, or lessor of said premises if any of them can be
found in this Borough, and if not residents of the Borough, then a
copy of said notice shall be mailed to them or any of them if the
address is known. Anyone who shall fail to vacate the premises after
condemnation shall be subject to a penalty of $10 for each and every
day that he shall remain on the premises after the time specified
for vacating in such notice. Any owner, lessor or agent who shall
cause the premises to be rented, let, or leased after posting of notice
of condemnation, upon conviction thereof, shall be subject to a penalty
of $10 for each and every day that said premises are occupied after
said notice.
No person shall maintain for camping purposes or as living quarters,
either temporary or permanent, within the limits of the Borough, any

water; nor shall any trailer or other vehicle be maintained in such
manner as to be or create a nuisance.
