Official:Amending Section 9-1004 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Contractors," by authorizing duly designated employees of the Philadelphia Parking Authority ("Authority") to issue notices of violation to enforce the provisions of that Section and any regulations adopted pursuant to that Section, and delegating to the Authority the power to carry out such function, all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Kenney
Introduced: March 5, 2009
: Committee on Law and Government
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 gives the Philadelphia Parking Authority employees the power to issue fines and penalties to people who don't follow city contractor regulations, such as requiring a license.
