Official:Amending Title 12 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Traffic Code," to establish a towing zone location on Midvale Avenue; all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Jones
Introduced: October 4, 2012
: Committee on Streets and Services
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2012–2015 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 establishes a towing zone location on Midvale Avenue between Kelly Drive and Ridge Avenue. Vehicles parked in this area will be subject to towing under certain terms and conditions.
