READ AND PASSED

This enacted measure amended Philadelphia’s Property Maintenance Code to create a separate offense for a chronic non-compliant owner of a residential property. A person can be classified this way after six covered violations within two years, or three violations within two years that are not fixed within 30 days and have no pending appeal, in addition to penalties for the underlying violations.

Amending Subcodes "A" and "PM" of Title 4 of The Philadelphia Code ("The Philadelphia Administrative Code" and "The Philadelphia Property Maintenance Code"), by establishing a separate offense for certain chronic, non-compliant violators of the Property Maintenance Code; all under certain terms and conditions.
