Official:Officially naming and designating the Cobbs Creek Community Environmental Education Center located at 700 Cobbs Creek Parkway, in the City of Philadelphia as “Carole Williams-Green Community Environmental Education Center.”
Sponsor: Councilmember Blackwell
Introduced: November 21, 2019
: Committee on Public Property and Public Works
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 officially renames the Cobbs Creek Community Environmental Education Center to 'Carole Williams-Green Community Environmental Education Center' in recognition of its founder's efforts.
