Official:Amending Subcode "PM" of Title 4 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "The Philadelphia Property Maintenance Code," by amending Section PM-303.0, entitled "General Property and Structural Maintenance," to require the posting in occupied premises of certain information regarding the person or business responsible for the maintenance and management of the building, all under certain terms and conditions.

Introduced: January 24, 2008
: Committee on Licenses and Inspections
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2008–2011 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 requires property owners to post a notice in their occupied premises with information about who is responsible for maintenance and management of the building.
