Official:Repealing Title 14 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Zoning and Planning," and replacing it with a new Title 14 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Zoning and Planning"; and making conforming changes to the Zoning Maps of the City; all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember O'Neill
Introduced: October 27, 2011
: Committee of the Whole
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 repeals and replaces Title 14 of The Philadelphia Code, which governs zoning and planning in the city. It makes conforming changes to the Zoning Maps of the City.
