Amending Title 14 of The Philadelphia Code, entitled "Zoning and Planning," by adding certain definitions to Section 14-207 relating to the "R-11", "R-11A", "R-12" and "R-13" Residential Districts.

AI summary

This lapsed bill would have amended Philadelphia’s zoning code by adding definitions for “court,” “group dwellings,” and “structure” in the R-11, R-11A, R-12, and R-13 residential districts. The proposal would have affected how zoning rules are defined and applied to properties in those residential districts, but it did not become operative law.
