The Council may close any street or public place,
or section thereof, to public traffic for the purpose of repairing,
constructing or reconstructing the same. The Mayor and Council may,
by resolution, designate certain streets or portions thereof upon
which coasting will be permitted at certain times of the day and night,
and may direct that the street or portion thereof shall be closed
to vehicular traffic during such hours. When any street or public
place, or portion thereof, is closed, there shall be placed a sign
at each end of the portion closed, plainly visible to approaching
traffic, reading substantially as follows: "Street Closed. Passing
Forbidden." No person shall drive or cause to be propelled any vehicle
over said street or portion thereof so closed and marked as aforesaid.
No person shall place or erect any electric
light, telegraph or telephone pole or other pole in or upon any street
or public place, except pursuant to permission granted by the Mayor
and Council. This provision shall not effect any public utility corporation
to whom a franchise has been granted by the Borough, or who is operating
under a state law granting a privilege to use public streets without
permission of the Borough.
No person shall mix or cause to be mixed any
mortar, cement or other like substance on any street, public place
or roadway, unless a mixing board or box for that purpose shall be
used.
