Official:Adopting the Operating Budget for Fiscal Year 2021.
Sponsor: Council President Clarke
Introduced: March 5, 2020
: Committee of the Whole
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2020–2023 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 adopts the City of Philadelphia's operating budget for Fiscal Year 2021, which outlines how $5.2 billion in funds will be allocated to various city departments and offices.
