Hellertown Passes Sidewalk Ordinance

Hellertown Borough has recently begun to aggressively enforce their Sidewalk Inspection Ordinance (Ordinance No. 683), which was adopted in 2005. The Ordinance requires that sellers contact the Borough so the Code Officer can inspect the sidewalk for compliance. According to the Ordinance, it is the responsibility of the current property owners (seller) to bring the sidewalk into compliance prior to sale. If there is no existing sidewalk, the current owner is required to install one at their expense.
