Administrative Code

The adoption of an Administrative Code by Braddock Borough Council is mandated by PA Act 62 of 1972 - The Home Rule Charter and Optional Plans Law and acts as a complement to the Home Rule Charter adopted by the citizenry on November 5, 2019. Together, the Home Rule Charter, Administrative Code and Administrative Manual will provide for the structure and functions of government, the general management and administration of the Borough and guide the day-to-day operations and processes conducted by municipal officials, employees and contractors. All form the basis for a fair and equitable local government for all residents and support the Borough’s efforts to recover from financial distress and develop a foundation for long term viability and financial self-sufficiency.

There is hereby established an Administrative Code for the government of the Borough of Braddock, Pennsylvania, a home rule municipality, pursuant to its Home Rule Charter and the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. This Code shall become a part of the code of the Borough of Braddock and shall be known and referred to as the “Code” or “Administrative Code.” Said Code defines the responsibilities of such municipal departments, offices and agencies as the Borough Council deems necessary for the proper and efficient conduct of municipal affairs.
