Official:Amending Chapter 10 of the Philadelphia Code, entitled, "Regulation of Individual Conduct and Activity," by amending certain provisions all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Campbell
Introduced: March 29, 2007
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2004–2007 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 a section of the Philadelphia Code to impose penalties for gambling in certain public places, specifically 'Tot Playgrounds'.
