No one voted on this bill

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.

Plain-Language Summary

This bill installs a traffic light at Sorrento Road and Conshohocken Avenue, adds stop signs on 47th Street at Conshohocken Avenue, and removes a traffic light from 47th Street and Conshohocken Avenue.
