The nonexclusive franchise granted the company herein shall expire 15 years from the date of expiration of the previous certification of approval by the Board.

The Township reserves the right at any time to enforce and/or terminate the franchise according to applicable laws, rules and regulations for the company's failure to perform any of its commitments and obligations as set forth in this chapter. Prior to enforcement or termination, the Township shall give the company 60 days' written notice to cure the noncompliance. In the event noncompliance continues, the Township shall file a petition with the Board of Public Utilities seeking such relief as is appropriate under the circumstance.
