Yeadon Borough Council is considering three ordinance amendments that would establish annual use and occupancy inspections for commercial properties, update the borough’s rental license and inspection code, and require the installation of secure lock boxes containing keys and emergency information for certain structures to aid first responders. The proposals outline associated fees, penalties and administrative provisions. Borough officials said the measures are intended to strengthen property oversight and improve emergency response readiness. Yeadon currently has residential resale inspection requirements at point of sale, as well as rental property inspection requirements. The legal notice advertising the proposed ordinances did not specify a public hearing date.
