Official:To amend Section 14-802(3) of the Philadelphia Code, entitled "Required Parking in Commercial Districts," by changing the parking requirements for lots designated CMX-3, all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Council President Clarke
Introduced: May 21, 2015
: Committee on Rules
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 changes parking requirements for commercial lots in certain areas of Philadelphia, specifically requiring a minimum of 18 parking spaces for CMX-3 zoned lots.
