Crafton Borough Council on [date not specified in transcript] voted to adopt Ordinance No. 1681, a measure the borough manager described as aligning the borough's discrimination provisions with the county code and eliminating the borough's separate EEO board.
Manager Price introduced the ordinance and said it adds language to sections 95-3 through 95-6 of the Crafton Borough code and repeals most of sections 95-7 and 95-8, which had created an EEO board. "So with that, I'd like to motion to adopt ordinance number 16 81, amending chapter 95 of the Crafton Borough code," Price said. After a brief procedural clarification, the council approved the motion by voice vote.
Supporters on the council framed the change as a streamlining of complaint performance and an effort to make the borough's text consistent with county rules. The ordinance was advertised in advance, and the manager said the edit retains the borough's prohibitions on unlawful discriminatory conduct while removing the separate EEO board structure.
No council member requested additional amendments during the vote, and the council recorded the outcome by voice approval. The ordinance will be codified into the Crafton Borough code. The council did not record a roll-call vote count in the meeting transcript; the motion was confirmed by the chair as passing.
Next step: the ordinance moves into the borough's administrative process for final codification and publication; the agenda indicated related materials were posted online with the meeting packet.
