for outside employment be considered in any way compensable as overtime.
D.
Escrow account.
Once the written agreement is signed, the Clerk and/or Chief shall
notify the Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"). The CFO will then establish

off-duty services as stated within the written agreement.
E.
Advance

a private business, contractor, or public or other quasi-public entity
employer, as stated within the written agreement between the parties.
The Borough shall remit to the member of the Police Department performing
their respective portion of the hourly rate worked on any off-duty

A.
Purpose.
Telephone directories are distributed to individual homeowners by
the incumbent local exchange carrier, pursuant to regulations adopted
by the Board of Public Utilities. Many of the residents of the Borough
of Mantoloking are not full-time residents and are unable to receive
their directory when it is delivered, leaving the directories vulnerable
to the elements creating a rubbish and safety hazard. This section
requires the carrier to deposit all of the directories for the customers
in Mantoloking at a protected central location, so that residents
may retrieve intact directories, and the directories are not destroyed
by the elements before they can be received by the homeowners.
B.
Telephone
directories that are required to be published and distributed to all
customers within a service area pursuant to N.J.A.C. 14:10-1A.4 shall
not be delivered door-to-door, but shall be delivered in bulk to the
Borough Hall for retrieval by the individual homeowners.
