TO THE PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA:
I am hereby returning unsigned Bill Number 260423, introduced by Councilmember Gauthier, and passed by City Council on June 11, 2026. This bill would amend certain provisions of Chapter 16-400 of the Philadelphia Code related to vacant and surplus properties. These changes would negatively impact City agency’s current disposition process and procedures already in place.
For these reasons, I am returning Bill Number 260423 unsigned.
Respectfully,
Cherelle L. Parker
Mayor
