Official:Amending Title 22 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Public Employees Retirement Code," to create two new Plans, entitled "Plan '09" and "DC Plan," for (i) certain employees hired or rehired on and after July 1, 2009; and (ii) certain electing employees; and making technical changes; all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Tasco

: Committee on Labor and Civil Service
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 created two new retirement plans for city employees hired after July 1, 2009: Plan '09 and DC Plan.
