Official:Authorizing and directing the changing of the name of Langley Avenue, from South 26th Street to South Broad Street, to League Island Boulevard, under certain terms and conditions.
Sponsor: Councilmember Johnson
Introduced: November 17, 2022
: Committee on Streets and Services
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 proposes to rename a stretch of Langley Avenue from South 26th Street to South Broad Street to League Island Boulevard.
