This communication advises City Council that Bill 240379 was returned unsigned after passing Council on June 13, 2024.
Transmitting a message advising you that I am hereby returning Bill Number 240379 unsigned, introduced by Councilmember Katherine Gilmore-Richardson, and passed by City Council on June 13, 2024. Bill Number 240379 would remove the nonprofit vendor exemption codified in Section 17-1400 of the Philadelphia Code. The nonprofit vendor exemption allows select City departments to swiftly secure and provide health, public safety, and social services during crises, natural disasters, public health emergencies, unforeseen infrastructure failures, and other emergent or time-sensitive situations. The nonprofit vendor exemption has been crucial during health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic, during mpox (formerly known as Monkeypox) outbreaks in certain communities, and when we have had a measles exposure at the PHL Airport. The exemption has also been needed in time-sensitive efforts to provide legal support to Philadelphians wrongfully denied benefits, when a child in our DHS sy...

This communication advises that the Mayor returned unsigned Bill 240061, a proposal that would have sent a Philadelphia Home Rule Charter amendment to voters.
Transmitting a message advising you that I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 240061, introduced by Councilmember Jamie Gauthier, and passed by City Council on June 06, 2024.

Specifically, it would require that an amount equal to total receipts by the City in the preceding calendar year of payments made in lieu of providing affordable housing for any purpose under the Zoning Code be appropriated to the HTF. This amount would be in addition to the current requirement for a mandatory annual appropriation for the HTF in the amount of at least one-half of one percent (0.5%) of the City's total General Fund appropriations, as required by another Charter change enacte...
