[Adopted 5-17-1994]
This article shall be known as the "Municipal Administrator Ordinance." The individual appointed to this position shall be known as the "Municipal Administrator."
Appointment to the office of Municipal Administrator shall be made by the Mayor with the advice and consent of the Borough Council. The term of office shall be at the pleasure of the Mayor and Council. The Borough Clerk may be appointed Municipal Administrator and serve simultaneously in both capacities.
The Municipal Administrator shall have such powers and perform such duties, other than those required by law to be exercised by the Borough Council or by another officer, board or agency of the Borough, as are prescribed herein and as may be prescribed by ordinance. The powers and duties shall include, generally, the management of the business and operations of the Borough under the supervision and control of the Mayor and Council.
The Municipal Administrator may be removed by 2/3 vote of the Borough Council. The resolution of removal shall become effective three months after its adoption by the Council, except that the Council may provide that such resolution shall have immediate effect; provided, however, that in such event the Borough Council shall cause to be paid to the Municipal Administrator any unpaid balance of his salary and his salary for the next three calendar months following the adoption of such resolution.[1]
