Official:Amending Section 12-918 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Parking for Auto Sharing Organizations," by providing for reserved spaces for car rental companies, under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Clarke
Introduced: April 7, 2011
: Committee on Streets and Services
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 creates reserved parking spaces for car rental companies and auto sharing organizations in Philadelphia. The Philadelphia Parking Authority will designate specific locations for these reserved spaces, considering factors such as resident access and transportation options.
