COMMUNICATION 250689

September 10, 2025 TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA: I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 250273, introduced by Councilmember Mark Squilla, and passed by City Council on June 05, 2025. Bill Number 250273 would amend certain existing restrictions on vehicle noise and create several vehicle noise prohibitions, each applying differing geographic and event restrictions, noise standards, and penalties. The need to address vehicle noise pollution is salient, and we appreciate the Council's efforts to address it with this bill. However, I have been advised by the Law Department that Bill Number 250273 has several legal and practical challenges. Because of these challenges, I am returning Bill Number 250273 unsigned. Respectfully, Cherelle L. Parker Mayor

COMMUNICATION 250688

September 10, 2025 TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA: I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 250213-A, introduced by Councilmember Nina Ahmad, and passed by City Council on June 12, 2025. Bill Number 250213-A is intended to regulate the sale of vaping devices to individuals under the age of 21. While this is a laudable goal, I have been advised by the Law Department that the requirements of this bill are both preempted by state law and inconsistent with the Philadelphia Home Rule Charter. For this reason, I am returning Bill Number 250213-A unsigned. Respectfully, Cherelle L. Parker Mayor

COMMUNICATION 250687

September 10, 2025 TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA: I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 250043, introduced by Councilmember Jamie Gauthier, and passed by City Council on June 05, 2025. This bill will define "affordable housing project" and enable the City to more effectively track zoning approvals and timelines, regardless of whether a variance or special exemption is required. Bill Number 250043 also alters the fee schedule for appeals to the Zoning Board of Adjustment by waiving the "accelerated hearing" fee for certain defined affordable housing projects. This will increase the number of cases heard on the accelerated schedule, potentially lengthening the time it takes to hear an accelerated appeal and, thus, reducing the difference between an accelerated appeal and a regular appeal. For these reasons, I am returning Bill Number 250043 unsigned. Respectfully, Cherelle L. Parker Mayor

September 10, 2025 TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA: I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 250041, introduced by Councilmember Jamie Gauthier, and passed by City Council on June 05, 2025. The Philadelphia City Planning Commission considered Bill Number 250041 at its public meeting on February 21, 2025, and held the case to continue working with the bill sponsor. While the Commission did not vote on the final version passed by the Council, Bill Number 250041 still presents unresolved technical challenges. For this reason, I am returning Bill Number 250041 unsigned. Respectfully, Cherelle L. Parker Mayor
