Donora Council will consider an ordinance that would give the borough’s code enforcement office the power to execute administrative search warrants in certain situations when code violations can result in dangerous conditions.

At the voting session, council voted 6-1 in favor of Solicitor Steve Toprani drafting the ordinance for review at the May workshop meeting.
