Official:Amending Title 22 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Public Employees Retirement Code," to provide for additional members of Plan 16, to change contribution rates for certain employees, and to make technical amendments, all under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Council President Clarke
Introduced: December 8, 2016
: Committee on Labor and Civil Service
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2016–2019 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 amends the Public Employees Retirement Code to add more members to Plan 16, change contribution rates for certain employees, and make technical amendments.
