Official:Amending Title 12 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Traffic Code," by amending the provisions relating to parking by physically handicapped persons and disabled and severely disabled veterans.
Sponsor: Councilmember Mariano
Introduced: June 14, 2001
: Committee on Streets and Services
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2000–2003 Council term and when that term ran out. The public record shows no committee vote and no floor vote at any stage, so no member of Council ever went on record for or against it.
That is not unusual here. Of the 8,465 bills introduced between 2000 and 2025, 1,624 lapsed without a single recorded vote. Ninety percent of bills that became law carry a roll call. Three percent of lapsed bills do. How this works.
This bill amends parking regulations for physically handicapped persons and severely disabled veterans in Philadelphia, allowing them to park longer and without fees on certain streets.
