Good morning, everyone. We're going to get started. We have a pretty long agenda today. If members have taken their seat, we have established a quorum. Visitors will retire behind the rail. Thank you very much. To give our invocation this morning, we have a very special guest, and I'd like to recognize Stefen Wisniewski of the Philadelphia -- wait a minute. Hold it. The Super Bowl Champion, Philadelphia Eagles. (Applause.)

He is here today as the guest of Councilman Oh. Thank you, Champ.

Thank you, Councilman.

If everybody would please stand. (Councilmembers, guests, and Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

I'm honored to be here with you guys. It's been awesome to see since the Super Bowl just how much that win has meant to the City, and I'm proud to have been a part of that. I think what we did was special for a lot of reasons, but hopefully we can be an inspiration that a group of people from different backgrounds, different races, different socioeconomic backgrounds can come together for a common purpose and achieve something pretty awesome. And something a lot of people know about our team is that one thing that really bonded a lot of us together was our faith in Christ and that a lot of our players are followers of Jesus and spend a lot of time studying the word of God together, praying together, and I think that gave us a special bond. That's why I'm here today, is to pray. So let's bow our heads. Father in heaven, you are holy, Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 all-powerful, all-mighty. You sit above the circled earth we got down here. We look like little grasshoppers, and yet you love us so much, God. You love us so much that you sent your son Jesus to die on the cross to pay a penalty for our sins, God. Thank you for that. God, our prayer this morning is that your will will be done here on earth, here in Philadelphia, here in the City Council as it is in heaven. God, this city, this earth, it doesn't look like it's supposed to, God. It doesn't look like heaven. We have way too much chaos, way too much violence, way too much selfishness. God, forgive us for our part in the failings of this world, forgive us for our sins, and fill us with your spirit that we may walk more closely with you and that we may make this world down here like it is up in heaven. God, I want to pray for this Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 pray for the Councilmembers, all the leaders of this City, God. We want to pray that you would give them the spirit of unselfishness, Lord Jesus, that pride would be done away with and humility would rule, Lord Jesus. We pray that all the leaders of this City would do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility would consider others more important than themselves and that we would not -- all the leaders would not think of their own career, their own interests, but would be empty vessels, God, servants, Lord Jesus, as you were a servant, Lord Jesus. You made yourself nothing, coming down from heaven, coming to this earth to walk around with us dirty, dirty, selfish human beings, but did that out of humility, God. Let our leaders take your example and follow that. God, I also want to pray for unity, Lord Jesus. We are so divided as Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 nation, as a city for a lot of reasons, God, and we just pray that -- pray for unity of mind, unity of heart, unity of spirit through you, Lord Jesus, through your spirit, that we would work together and put aside our differences, in your name. We love you, Lord Jesus. Ask your blessing and ask these in your powerful name. Amen. (Amen.)

Thank you, Mr. Wisniewski, for those spirited words. Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

Thank you very much. Our next order of business is the approval of the Journal of the meeting of Thursday, March 8th, 2018, and the Chair recognizes Councilman Greenlee.

The Chair thanks the gentleman. And on behalf of the minority, the Chair recognizes Councilman Oh.

Thank you very much. On behalf of the minority, there are no requests for leaves of absence.

The Chair thanks the gentleman. Before we proceed, I would ask if anyone has a device, cell phone or any other type of device that makes any noise, could you please turn it off. Thank you very much. At this time, I would like to dispense with the regular order of business and I would like to welcome and thank everyone who has taken time out of their busy day to come down to witness their government in action. We wish that your stay here today is a knowledgeable one but, more importantly, a pleasurable one, so much so that you come back again. So, again, we really appreciate you being Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 time, for our first presentation, the Chair recognizes Councilman Henon, who will present a resolution recognizing my good friend and spiritual advisor, Sister Mary Scullion, as the Grand Marshal of the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade. Would Sister Mary Scullion and those accompanying her please join the Councilman at the podium. (Applause.) (Councilmembers and guests approached podium.)

And joining Councilman Henon, we have Councilwoman Blackwell, Councilman Greenlee, and Councilman Johnson. And I believe we also have Councilman Squilla.

Well, good morning, everybody. (Good morning.)

Good morning. That's right. Before we begin, I would like to -- want to say a few Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 special occasion as we honor the Grand Marshal, but it's very special this year, because a miracle is a surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by nature, natural or scientific laws and is, therefore, considered to be work of a divine agency. If you listen to the interviews conducted by Sister and with Sister, along with Sister, you will periodically hear her talk about miracles. She once said that it was a miracle that she was able to get people to believe in her at the onset when no one knew anything about her, her mission or Project HOME. I've never argued or I've never said no to a nun. Catholic school has taught me well. But in this case, I would say, Sister Mary, the miracle wasn't that people believed in you. The miracle is you. You are evidence of God's power and presence in our lives and his ability to work in us and through us, from running organizations that have Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 immigrants, to preserving the arts and culture of the Irish, the incredible people standing along with me here today and the parade's Ring of Honor, the Board members of the St. Patrick's Day Observance Committee, our incredible dancers, the Celtic Flames. They all represent the best of the Philadelphia Irish community. Everyone standing here is so proud to honor and recognize Sister Mary Scullion as Grand Marshal of the 2018 St. Patrick's Day Parade. Sister is the daughter of Irish immigrants. So proud that we can call her one of our own, but we are especially proud of her tireless work to answer God's call to serving Philadelphia's homeless by giving them homes, housing opportunity for unemployment, medical care, and education. We are here to thank and honor Sister for her fearless and wicked dedication, her compassion, and her Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 faith, and in doing so, we are thanking God for giving us the miracle that Sister Mary Scullion is and represents. Sister, on behalf of my colleagues on City Council, especially Council President Clarke, on behalf of the entire Irish community, the Ring of Honor of the 2018 St. Patrick's Day Parade Board, we thank you for being here. Go raibh mile maith agat. May God continue to bless you. And with that, we are going to start and recognize and honoring Sister Mary Scullion, R.S.M. as the Grand Marshal of the 248th annual St. Patrick's Day Parade.

This resolution covers about as much as Sister Mary's history that you can fit on a resolution. One thing that definitely won't be in here is something I experienced several years with her and are very fond memories, bartending on St. Patrick's Day Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 And we were actually -- we would actually try to be bartenders, and it didn't work real well, but we had a great time. And so whereas, Sister Mary Scullion, R.S.M. is a Philadelphia-based American Roman Catholic religious sister and activist, named by "Time" as one of the "100 Most Influential People in the World" in 2009, alongside Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey; Whereas, Sister Mary Scullion's commitment to the service of others began with her education at Little Flower High School -- Catholic High School for Girls, a Jesuit education from St. Joseph's University -- it's almost a Catholic education, right? I went there -- and a Master's in Social Work from Temple University; and Whereas, Scullion joined the Sister of Mercy and began working on behalf of the homeless in 1976. She has been involved in service work and Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 mentally ill persons since 1978. Sister Mary was a co-founder in 1985 of Women of Hope, which provides permanent residences and support services for homeless mentally ill women; and

Whereas, in 1988 -- and I was here working for Lucien Blackwell in those days -- Sister Mary founded the Outreach Coordination Center, the nation's first program that coordinated city, private, and public agencies to assist people living on the streets with special needs in finding housing and shelter in a more systematic way. The following year, she and her associate, Joan Dawson McConnon, co-founded Project H.O.M.E., a nationally recognized organization that provides supportive housing, employment, education and healthcare to enable chronically homeless and low-income persons to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty under the motto "none of us are home Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 are home"; and Whereas, Project H.O.M.E. has grown from an emergency winter shelter to 802 units of affordable and supportive housing for persons who have experienced homelessness and low-income persons at risk of homelessness in the City of Philadelphia. There are an additional 30 units under construction, 42 units in pre-development, and 170 units in the pipeline. Project H.O.M.E.'s goal is to complete 1,000 total units of affordable housing in the near future; and

Whereas, under Sister Mary's leadership, Project H.O.M.E. established the Hub of Hope, which for six winters has served as a walk-in engagement center located in the concourses of Suburban Station. Since 2012, the Hub has had over 36,000 visits and facilitated 1,429 placements into shelter, treatment programs, and housing around the City. Now, through a partnership between SEPTA, the City of Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Philadelphia, and Project H.O.M.E., the Hub of Hope has expanded into a permanent location in Suburban Station to offer year-round services; and Whereas, Sister Mary Scullion has been recognized locally and nationally for her dedication to the service of the less fortunate and has received numerous awards and honorary doctorates for her leadership including the 1992 Philadelphia Award, a 2002 Eisenhower Fellowship, the 2002 Ford Foundation's prestigious "Leadership for a Changing World Award," and the 2011 Medal from The University of Notre Dame, which is the highest award given to an American Catholic; and

Whereas, Sister Mary's dedication to Philadelphia includes serving as a Trustee at St. Joseph's University and a tenure on the City of Philadelphia's Board of Ethics; and Whereas, Sister Mary Scullion's Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 is rooted in the guiding principles of the Religious Sisters of Mercy, which was founded in 1831 in Dublin, Ireland by Catherine McAuley; and Whereas, the theme of the 2018 St. Patrick's Day Parade is "St. Patrick, Bless Those Who Respond to the Call of the Needy"; and

Whereas, joining Sister Mary Scullion as Grand Marshal, the Ring of Honor members for the 2018 St. Patrick's Day Parade include Honorable Bobby Henon, Honorable Brian O'Neill, Sister Kathleen Klarich, R.S.M., Eileen Conboy Barrilli, Siobhan Lyons, Reverend James Callahan, Sean Trainor, William Heeney Senior, Joseph Ashdale, Wayne Miller, Monsignor Paul Kennedy, Sister Maureen McGarrity, Tom Regan, Clair McManus Fulginitti, Mike Roman, Jack Gill, and Joseph Driscoll; and Whereas, the 2018 Philadelphia St. Patrick's Day Parade would not be Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 support and dedication of the Mayo Association, the Donegal Society, the Derry Society, the Tyrone Society, the Cavan Society, the Galway Society, the Irish Society, the Second Street Irish Society, the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick, the Irish Memorial, the Behon Law Society, the Irish Network of Philadelphia, the Emerald Society, the Cairdeas Irish Brigade, the St. Patrick's Day Observance Association, and all the individual chapters of the Ancient Order of Hibernians and the Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians throughout Philadelphia and Delaware Valley; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, that the Council of the City of Philadelphia, does hereby recognize and honor Sister Mary Scullion, R.S.M. as Grand Marshal of the 248th Annual St. Patrick's Day Parade. And it further be resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Mary, R.S.M. as evidence of our sincere respect and admiration of this legislative body. Congratulations. (Applause.)

And at this time, the Chair recognizes Sister Mary Scullion for remarks.

First, I want to recognize a little bit out of order, before our Grand Marshal, is the President of our St. Patrick's Day Observance Committee and Parade Committee, our own Bill Ivers. (Applause.)

After 46 years in politics, I don't often get to this level here, but I'm proud to be up here today. I'd like to thank our President, Darrell Clarke, and also Bobby Henon, Councilman Henon, and Councilman O'Neill for introducing this resolution and all of Council for signing on. Nearly 33 million Americans Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 made tremendous contributions to the betterment of our country. For centuries, the tenuous Irish spirit paired with American self-reliance has helped Irish immigrants and their descendents realize incredible dreams. With religious devotion, strength through love of family and confidence in promise of America, Irish Americans have engaged the American experience in robust and meaningful ways. Their neighborhoods, schools, churches, and workplaces had affirmed the importance of faith, industry, and learning. It's therefore no wonder that Americans' art, business, and public life are marked by the Irish names and symbols. So in the spirit of St. Patrick, I wish you all a blessed and happy St. Patrick's Day. And also I'd like to say to Sister Mary Scullion, Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 mission here in Philadelphia and around the country. It's unbelievable what you have succeeded in doing for the unfortunate people around. And I'd like to thank my Board of Directors for a great parade last Sunday. We had tremendous weather and great crowds at our new location down at Independence Hall. Thank you, and happy St. Patrick's Day. (Applause.) SISTER MARY: Thanks a lot, Bill, and congratulations to the Ring of Honor. I really want to thank all of City Council, especially my friend, who is awesome, Council President Darrell Clarke. Thank you. And also to Jannie Blackwell and her late husband Lucien, who were such great leaders when the plight of the homeless -- we didn't have as many friends as we do today. So thank Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 much, Councilwoman.

Thank you. (Applause.) SISTER MARY: I just want to say that my mom and dad, especially my mom, experienced really deep poverty when she lived in Ireland, and my mom and dad came here in pursuit of the American dream. When they came, they didn't even have a high school -- I mean a grade school education. They didn't even graduate from eighth grade. My mom cleaned houses and my dad was a bartender. I really never lived up to his ability, but that's beside the point. Okay? But the thing I really think is really important is, they came in search of the American dream and they worked for that American dream of equal opportunity for all, and as long as we have people living on our streets and as long as we have immigrants who are unwelcome in our Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 country, that dream is still just that, a dream, and we have a lot of work to do in our society to make that dream a reality. Vincent Harding said, is America possible? And that question still haunts us today in the society that we live in today where there's greater economic disparities and they're growing. And so I'm deeply honored and touched by this award, but it's only an indication of so much more work that needs to be done, and when we as Irish coming from an Irish culture made gains in this country, it's even more incumbent upon us never to forget where we came from and never to forget the struggles of others, because we're one human family. Thank you. (Applause.)

Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilwoman Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Blackwell, who will present a resolution recognizing Cheyney University. Would Milt Colston and those accompanying him please join the Councilwoman at the podium. (Councilmembers and guests approached podium.)

The Chair recognizes Councilman Green, Councilwoman Bass, Councilwoman Gym, Councilwoman Blondell Reynolds Brown, Councilman Taubenberger, Councilwoman Parker, of course Councilwoman Blackwell, Councilman Jones, Councilman Johnson.

Good morning. (Good morning.)

This is a special pleasure for me. As you know, I'm very proud to be Jannie from Cheyney. (Applause.)

I want to thank Michael Coard for all of his Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Cheyney, all those who are here. Bob Bogle, thank you for everything you do and always have done. And I won't mention anyone else at this point, but thank you all for being here, and I want to thank all my colleagues. Resolution honoring and recognizing Cheyney University on the 40th Anniversary of its 1978 NCAA Division II Basketball Championship.

Whereas, on March 18th, 1978, the Cheyney Wolves made history by defeating the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay in bringing home the NCAA Division II Championship trophy; and

Whereas, Cheyney State College opened as the Number Two team in the nation in the first Division II poll that year, just behind Green Bay, which held the Number One spot the entire season, with its only loss of the season being against Division I DePaul University; and Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

Whereas, there were 32 teams in the Division II Men's Basketball Tournament 40 years ago. Cheyney defeated Adelphi University in the regional semifinals, then went on to vanquish Philadelphia College in the regional final, which led them to beating Sacred Heart University in the national quarterfinals, and finally Florida Institute of Technology in the national semifinals; and

Whereas, the Cheyney championship team, led by Naismith Hall of Fame Coach, John Chaney, was comprised of John Butts, Duane Coleman, All-American Milt Colston, Tournament MVP Andrew Fields, Kenney Hinson, Jeffrey Hutcherson, Roger Leysath, Gerald Mills, Charles Murphy, Gilbert Saunders, Arthur Stone, and John Walter; and

Whereas, winning the championship would not have been possible without the dedication of Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Chaney; and Whereas, Cheyney University honored its 1977-78 Division II National Championship Men's Basketball Team on February 17th, 2018 inside Cope Hall on the campus of Cheyney University; and

Whereas, March 18th, 2018 will be the 40th Anniversary of this momentous occasion in the Cheyney University history. We congratulate you and celebrate wholeheartedly with you;

Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the Council of the City of Philadelphia hereby recognizes and honors Cheyney University on the 40th Anniversary of their 1978 NCAA Division II Basketball Championship.

Further resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution be presented to Coach John Chaney and the 1978 Cheyney Men's Basketball Team as a sincere expression Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 the City of Philadelphia's gratitude, admiration, and recognition. (Applause.)

President Clarke said there will be no challenge by the City Council Basketball Team, because they still look like they can play.

We don't do embarrassment well, no. At this time, the Chair recognizes Milt Colston for remarks. (Applause.)

Wow. It's been 40 years since we won a national championship. I just want to take just a second to talk about the journey. In 1978, Cheyney University had two championship teams. We had a women's championship team that went to the Final Four that year, and they should be recognized as well. (Applause.) Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

We also had a coach, a coach that was demanding, who had high expectations, who taught us about unity and togetherness, and I believe that these are the ingredients that help us, that propelled us to become winners. Two years prior to winning the National Championship, we reached the Eastern Finals. We lost both years at the buzzer. My senior year, which would be our third year, we returned, and during that time, we won at the buzzer. This was the first time we had reached the Final Four, and we were playing the number one school in the country that year, which was Green Bay-Wisconsin. It was a great game. We had guys who came into the game and they did their job. They did an outstanding job, and that's why we're standing here today. I want to thank the men on the 1978 championship team for not only being good athletes, but being good people. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 closing, I'd like to give a special thanks to Pamela West, who was a cheerleader -(Applause.)

-- during our time. And I also would like to give a special thanks to Michael Coard, who has gone beyond the call of duty for Cheyney University. (Applause.)

Thank you very much. (Applause.)

Thank you. We have two more speakers. The Chair recognizes the aforementioned Michael Coard and then we'll have Mr. Robert Bogle.

I've never met a microphone I didn't like, but everybody who knows me knows I do my angry black man thing, and I'm not angry today, so that's all I have to say. This is a big Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 (Applause.)

Good morning. On behalf of the members of the Council of Trustees to Cheyney, we applaud the team of 1978 for all that they did then, and we absolutely respect the men and women who are there today, who wouldn't be there had it not been for people like them. So on behalf of all the members of Council, we'd like to thank the City Council and all the members of Council, and thank you for coming today. (Applause.)

Thank you. Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

Thank you and, again, congratulations. At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilman Green, who will present a resolution honoring the Montier family. Would William Pickens III and Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 join the Councilman at the podium. (Councilmembers and guests approached podium.)

Good morning. (Good morning.)

It's a pleasure to do this resolution, and I want to thank my good friend Nicole Allen White and all the people at the Philadelphia Museum of Art for giving me some information about this phenomenal family. Just last month, February was Black History Month, but we all know black history is American history, and this unique family, I think, crystallizes the unique history of our country, the fact that their lineage goes back to the first mayor of this city. And just having an opportunity to learn about that history, about their role in Philadelphia and Cheltenham is phenomenal. I thought Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 that we highlight this unique family and their history and how it symbolizes our country. So it gives me great honor to present this resolution honoring the Montier Family of Philadelphia and Cheltenham and recognizing their historical significance and contributions to our region. Whereas, during the early colonial period, prior to the establishment of our nation, William Penn received a large land grant from King Charles II of England as a repayment of his a debt owed his father; and Whereas, in the course of developing what would be known as Pennsylvania, Penn required prospective landowners to purchase parcels of land in the wilderness as a precondition to buying land in the City; and Whereas, in 1682, a group of 15 Quakers pooled their resources to acquire land from William Penn, and the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 new land became Cheltenham Township, one of the nation's earliest suburbs; and Whereas, one of these landowners was Humphrey Morrey, who controlled 250 acres in the western portion of Cheltenham, who would be appointed by Penn as Philadelphia's first mayor in 1691;

Wow. Whereas, in spite of their vital role in the formation of the white abolitionist movement, some Quakers, including Morrey, were slaveholders; and Whereas, upon the death of Humphrey Morrey bequeathed his human property to his children and one enslaved woman known as Cremona, or "Moonie," went to the home of the youngest son Richard; and Whereas, Richard Morrey and Cremona fell in love and married and had five children - a rare example from that time and place in history of consensual Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 of European descent and a woman of African descent; Whereas, after Richard died, Cremona, who was left 198 acres of land in his will, met and in 1766 married Jean Montier, a black man of French Caribbean descent, and they later had one son; and Whereas, the Montiers, including the children of Richard and Cremona, built a homestead in Cheltenham where they lived and made boots and shoes, and established a shop in Philadelphia which went on to prosper and bring them considerable wealth; and

Whereas, the descendants of Richard and Cremona have played crucial roles in the history of our nation, like serving in the Union Army during the Civil War, and in the sustaining of the local black community, including establishing and supporting churches, burial grounds and mutual aid societies; and Whereas, in 1841, Hiram and Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 pair of sitting self portraits in oil, an option which at the time was only available to families with wealth, very few of whom were African American descent; and Whereas, those rare and unique examples of American art were handed down through several generations of Montiers and were privately held until one descendant, Williams Pickens III, inspired by the historic election of the first black President of the United States, lent them to the Philadelphia Museum of Art for public display; and Whereas, the history of the Montiers, dating back more than three centuries, including the portraits of Hiram and Elizabeth, the home in Cheltenham, and a trove of documents, has been the subject of several articles and documentaries, including a new half-hour documentary produced by WHYY; and

Whereas, the story of the Montiers reminds us that Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 have been built if not for the efforts of a broad and diverse group of individuals, all of whom deserve a share of the prosperity it creates; now, therefore, be it Resolved, by the Council of the City of Philadelphia, that this Council does hereby honor the Montier family of Philadelphia and Cheltenham and recognize their historical significance and contributions to our region. Further resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution be presented to William Pickens III and other descendents of the Montiers, as evidence of the sincere sentiments of this legislative body. Congratulations. (Applause.)

Well, thank you very much. On behalf of my family -- and they're all behind me. We have some in front of me as well -- we thank the City Council and this wonderful city, the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 when. We've been here 348 years in Philadelphia. We greeted guys like Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, Benjamin Franklin right here in this city. The Montiers, the Morreys were here growing, prospering, trying to shape the mores and folkways of our nation. And behind me you see the heirs of all of that work. Our tendrils extend across this land, around the world. We have one cousin who came in from Brussels. So we're everywhere and anywhere America needs us. We thank WHYY and Karen Smyles for her wonderful work in helping orchestrate and organize this family reunion. We have been around I say for 348 years. We'll be around another 348 years, guaranteed. We love this country and helped make it what it is today, and I think that Philadelphia is the right place for us to celebrate and commemorate. And so I bless you all. God bless our family Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 nation. Thank you very much. (Applause.)

Thank you. Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)

Thank you. The Chair recognizes Councilman Green.

Thank you, Council President. I just want to take a quick moment to recognize one of my colleagues from Democratic Municipal Officials, which is a national organization representing 40,000 local officials all across this country. We just came back from the National League of Cities' conference in DC. I'd like to recognize Mayor Ian Baltutis from Burlington, North Carolina. (Applause.)

Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Mr. Decker, would you please call the first witness.

Joe Danihel, commenting on 180228, 180225, and 180220. (Witness approached podium.)

Good morning.

Good morning. This is an official decree of the people in writ of mandamus quo warranto and, as such, requires immediate action and remedy. Every week Council, Mayor, and others transfer private property to the government, probably illegally. A few days ago, Congressman Brady and Council President announced a private bill to be held -- to help an undocumented person. Meanwhile, real constituents are being made homeless and being removed from their neighborhoods while their elected representatives refuse their sworn duty to meet with them. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 A constituent is defined as a voting member of a community. Elected representatives are required to help constituents. In 2016, an outsider was elected. The sovereign people sent a clear message to the elected monarchy that violating the people is not allowed, that violating oath, law, and constitutions will be prosecuted. Laws are like Bibles. Unless they are followed, nothing changes. As public servants, you cannot violate oath, Constitution, and law without penalty. How can agents and agencies steal my home without compensation, due process, Seventh Amendment trial by jury? How could government pay a contractor upwards of 100 million, mostly federal taxpayer HUD money, to build a mall on my stolen home? Why has no official demanded the Attorney General investigate and prosecute, as required by law? The constitutions require immediate remedy of this breach of law, Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 breach of close, breach of fiduciary duty. Your oath of office requires you to act or face prison. 42 USC 1982, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1987, 18 USC 241, 242, 2381, 2384, PA Constitution, Article I, Sections 1 through 11, 26 PA CSA 703, 705, 708, 709, 712, 713, 716, and other laws listed in SCOTUS 15-8965, 14-1330, 14-4056 appear violated. I call for the federal and Commonwealth governments to perform their constitutional obligations to investigate and prosecute all involved in the theft and illegal deed transfer of my home, 1038 West Wyoming Avenue. The denial of God-given 42 USC 1982 property rights for 24 years is egregious, extraordinary, oath-violating, and requires immediate remedy. A just government must obey the rule of law. This color of law government must have its Charter to govern revoked until a constitutionally Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 compliant government is installed. Public servants cannot refuse their sworn duty to act any more than a fireman can refuse to fight a fire. The sovereign people require the oath, Constitution, and laws be enforced, and jail is required for all who violate oath, Constitution or law.

Thank you for your testimony.

I remind Council, it takes a lot of cooperation to create and allow monumental corruption.

Thank you for your testimony.

Debbie Rhoe, commenting on 170408 and 180220. (Witness approached podium.)

Good morning.

Hello, everyone. I'm going to speak on 180220, resolution authorizing the Commissioner of Public Property to execute and deliver to the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority, without consideration, deeds conveying conditional fee simple title to certain City-owned lots and pieces of ground with buildings and improvements thereon, situated in the Sixteenth Ward of the City of Philadelphia, pursuant to Chapter 16-400 of The Philadelphia Code and authorizing the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority to dispose of such properties for rehabilitation and/or improvements in accordance with the terms of Chapter 16-400 of The Philadelphia Code. I'm very familiar with this. This was a beautification type contract or agreement that Mayor -- can't think of his name right now, but anyway, my property, I had property like that. I was very involved in beautifying my community and I had did everything I was supposed to in accordance with Chapter 16-400 and my properties were not conveyed to me through the Redevelopment Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Authority. President Council Clarke put a stop to that, and I was fighting for my property for ten years, and until I got lawyers involved, they were not conveyed. Eventually they were conveyed, and still my contractual agreement was not honored. It was supposed to be given to me for nominal fee. I wind up paying outrageous settlement costs, thousands of dollars, to get my properties, and I'm just not in agreement with this at all because, you know, after paying thousands of dollars when it was supposed to be nominal fee, I wind up having another burden placed on me ten more years before I could actually sell or do anything I wanted with it without the City of Philadelphia, President Clarke getting a piece of that money, which I think is outrageous, especially as a constituent who wanted to beautify my community. Not only that, it's like high taxes now. I'm paying 1,000 percent more than what I was paying, which was $125 a Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 year for a property. Now I'm paying $1,125 a year, which wants to really put me out of my community. And I'm not in agreement with whatever he's in cahoots with with Temple University as far as special interest groups, you know, gentrification. It's just horrible.

Ms. Rhoe.

And I am not in agreement with this.

Thank you. Thank you, Ms. Rhoe.

Rochelle Bilal, commenting on 160248. (Ms. Rhoe talking without microphone.) (Witness approached podium.)

Good morning, Councilman Clarke. Good morning, Councilpeople, here this morning. I'm finding out that this bill is being held, Bill No. 160248. As I constantly read Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 over everything in reference to this exclusion of use and occupancy tax, I caution you in reference to the organizations in this city that have property in the City that don't get a break from any taxes in this city, that taxes have increased over the years in reference to they property, that now on top of abatement, you want to give an occupancy exclusion. Until you look at those that are struggling to maintain they properties in the City, you shouldn't give anybody an exclusion from occupancy tax. Those that's here that been paying taxes, to say somebody coming here saying you don't have to pay the occupancy tax that most of us are struggling to pay, along with the assessment that keeps constantly going up and your taxes going up, and now everybody else gets an exclusion. I'm asking you to relook at that bill, 160248. On the other hand, we are Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 constantly saying -- I'm a part of the No Stadium, No Deal Coalition. No Stadium, No Deal Coalition. We hear what you saying, but until Temple say it, we going to keep saying No Stadium, No Deal Coalition. And from the Coalition, all your Councilpeople has a letter. This is your letter, Councilman Clarke. It's officially from the No Stadium, No Deal Coalition.

Thank you.

That is not just the Stompers. It's a coalition of us are saying this. So until they say no, we going to keep saying no stadium, no deal. No stadium, no deal. Thank you.

Thank you, Ms. Bilal. (Applause.)

Patrick Duff, commenting on 170967. (Witness approached podium.) Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

Good afternoon, Council.

Good afternoon.

I come to you -it's actually National Sunshine Week this week. Sunshine Week is the Sunshine Laws that create open public --

Mr. Duff, are you going to talk about the public Educational Supplement?

Actually --

That's what you signed up for.

That's the interesting part. That's why I'm here. Both of the other speakers were cut off basically at the end, which is fine.

No. We will -

You guys don't provide -

I need you to talk about what you signed up Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 for.

Well, I'm glad you're doing this, because it's going to give me the right to sue you for cutting me off.

We're still waiting for your -

Because you don't have an open -

I'm asking for you to please testify -

You don't have an open public comment section in your city like every other city in this state.

Mr. Duff.

And it's -

Mr. Duff, can you please -- you're supposed to talk about what you signed up for.

Okay. Well, let me say I support your bill. Can I speak now? I support your bill.

What Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 bill? You signed up for the public education -

Do I have the right to speak now as a citizen, a taxpayer?

Mr. Duff, we've been going through this for a while. (Mr. Duff talking without microphone.)

Do you want to call the next witness.

Barry Thompson.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

Barry Thompson -

Thank you.

You're welcome.

-- commenting on 170854. (Witness approached podium.)

Good afternoon, City Council.

Good Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 afternoon.

Good afternoon, City Council President. My name is Barry Thompson. I am the Vice President of the Philadelphia Tenants Union. I support Bill No. 170854. We go throughout the City getting the support of the community. We also have the support of the Philadelphia Mayor's Task Force, Eviction Task Force, supporting this bill. The problem that we are having now today is, we're being refused to meet with certain City Councilmen in certain districts about supporting this bill. We asked a long time ago to sit down with you concerning a good cause -- at the time, we was called the Philadelphia Tenants Union and it was called Just Cause Eviction Bill at the time. You told us that you wanted no part of the Philadelphia -

Is this the Councilman Jones -- Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

Yes. This is the same bill Councilman Jones presented.

Okay.

We, the Philadelphia Tenants Union, asked to sit down with you over a year and a half ago concerning the Philadelphia Tenants Union and the bill that we was fighting for. At that time, it was called Just Cause Eviction. The City determined to make it the Good Cause Eviction. The whole purpose is making it the cause that we all want to stand together on one ground. We want to ask City Councilmember and other Councilmembers to come together and support this bill. This bill, Good Cause Eviction, will also help with the eviction crisis in the City of Philadelphia, and we ask the City Council to stand behind us and help us get this bill passed.

Thank you, sir. Thank you for your Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 testimony.

Jarrett Smith, commenting on 170854. (Witness approached podium.)

Hi there. My name is Jarrett Smith. I'm the Campaign Director for the Philadelphia Tenants Union. I urge City Councilmembers to consider this bill very strongly. Philadelphia has an eviction crisis. I'm an organizer by trade and I'm an organizer in the community, and it's very easy to say Philadelphia has an eviction crisis and look at the data and look at one-fifth of housing being gone by the numbers, but to go down and having organized in buildings like the Penn Wynn, speaking with teachers, with elderly people, with generations of families and telling them that there is nothing the City can do for them, they're going to be homeless in several months. It's a lot easier to deny a Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 meeting with your constituents. It's a lot easier to pass the resolutions to support more development in the City, but let me tell you, it's very, very hard to look people in the face and tell them that there is nothing that we can do. What the Philadelphia Tenants Union has done is organized tenants throughout the City and constituent organizations to fight for a bill that will put a preventative measure for homelessness in this city. So far we've collected the support of Community Legal Services, the Tenant Union Representative Network, Stadium Stompers, Philadelphia SA, Witnesses to Hunger, Fair Housing Rights Center, Philly DSA, Liberty Resources, Help, MLP, Unite Here, Fifth Square, Temple University Graduate Student Union, and Mount Olive Tabernacle Baptist Church. We've covered all types of people in this City, and everyone working in housing in the City agrees that good Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 cause is a measure that we should be taking. No, it is not rent control, and as a former real estate agent in New York City, having sold some very expensive real estate, I can tell you this will not adversely affect development in the City. It will just turn the tables and put more of the balance and power for your constituents, for tenants in this city when they go before a court of law. Thank you.

Thank you for your testimony. (Applause.)

The Chair recognizes Councilman Johnson.

Thank you, Council President. I would like to be excused, but I would also like to be voting aye on all bills and resolutions.

Thank you, Councilman. The record shall reflect your vote. Thank you. Mr. Decker. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

Jackie Williams, commenting on 160248. (Witness approached podium.)

Good afternoon.

Yes. I'd like to give honor to God, and I want to say good morning to everyone or good afternoon. My name is Jacqueline Williams. I live at 1609 North 18th Street. I was born and raised on that block. My mother had a beauty shop there. My mother invested in other businesses in the area. I'm a block captain. I'm running for committee person. DDL, some type of funding, supposed to have purchased my house. They threatened me. They've taken my bedroom set, living room set, freezer out of my house, my furs, other things. They're trying to force me to leave. They came back again and asked me to leave. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 I want to thank Councilman Clarke for trying to help me. I'm not leaving out of my property, because I worked to pay two and three months mortgage. I was working 70 hours a week to pay my house off. I didn't have it. I was paying my taxes on the budget. Now I haven't paid it in a few months because of this DDLC, and I'm not going to let them run me out. They're trying to give me extenuating water bills, tell me I have to leave, to give them the property, sent a decorator out the other day, on Monday. I am a decorator. My house was nice. Now it's boxes with packed up. I'm still not moving out of my house, because at my birthday at 12/5/46, should I have to try to buy another property or get a mortgage and let these corporations come in and take over for Temple? I belong to Temple Stompers. It's down with Temple, up with the community. I try to keep clean. I sweep Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 the streets, both sides. Meade School, we're trying to get money together so that the children can get new books and stuff. Why should I have to go through this for some DDL? I've never even heard of it before. How can they just come in and take over our properties? I need some type of help so that I can organize my home, put things back in their proper perspective, place, and buy new things over so I can enjoy my home without having to be scared somebody is going to knock on my door.

Thank you. Before you leave, we'll follow up with you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

It's $35 a ticket, from 7:00 to 11:00 p.m. There'll be raffles, baskets, music, and other things. The proceeds will construct the Memorial to honor the 288 men and women from Pennsylvania who were killed in the global war on terror in Iraq and Afghanistan. Thank you.

Thank you, Councilman. Speeches on the part of the majority? The Chair recognizes Councilman Jones.

Thank you, Mr. President. Growing up in West Philadelphia, we had a tradition of busting someone's chops, and it was Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 It's probably the same throughout other parts of the City. You had to be able to take it and you had to be able to give it. You couldn't take it too personal because you would protest too much and people would think it must be true. But I feel compelled today to recognize the fact that the other day the Health and Human Services Committee held a hearing on opioids. There was a subsequent article written where some unflattering things were said by one of the reporters. In one case he said that some of our questions were not well thought out and somewhat juvenile and things like that. And in my case, said that I was more concerned about the Hamburglar at McDonald's than people who had addiction. And I thought it was kind of funny, but in the tradition of busting, I wanted to say that I attended a funeral of a young man, Nasser Fattah, son of Sister Falaka Fattah, who died of Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 opioids, and that wasn't in that article. That experience of seeing or hearing that someone had been in their room for two days until someone found them wasn't quite really funny. I'll go on to say that we as Councilpeople aren't experts on everything, so we ask some questions, but really if you think about, it's for four audiences. It's, one, for the people who are on TV who don't know all of the acronyms and shortcut answers to things. So you almost have to ask the question so that people who don't have advanced degrees in recovery can follow and get along, because they are the taxpayers and pay the bills. And then you have to go to the audience of the particular departments that you have to deal with and try to coax them to the place that actually gives you a real answer, because unlike elected officials who on some occasions are politicians, they can be crafty Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 If you don't box them in to ask the exact question that you want answered, they will skirt around the issue. I want to further say that the press is an important part of that too, because they highlight those things that might be important to all stakeholders, including elected officials, including the public, and we appreciate their observation. But what we need to understand is that we're doing this thing in a methodical way to build a record on the record so that when we come back in the budget process, we can refer to former questions and answers. I made reference in particular to the fact that there were two McDonald's, and I personally know these individuals for the last 20 years. Ken Youngblood, who has a store on Ogontz Avenue and one on Frankford, after 20 years is closing his Frankford Avenue store because he cannot manage some of Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 from some of the recovery places, because his staff, who he has to really coax at a $15 or less an hour to come and deal with that, get sodas thrown in their face, they get spit on, they get cursed out and threatened "don't come out the store after your shift" kind of thing. And I don't know where everybody else lives, but I go to the McDonald's at 52nd and Jefferson where on Sunday when ladies with the big hats are coming from church are afraid to go in there because the climate is such that they're uncomfortable. Now, don't get it twisted. When they tried to close Parkside recovery, that community tried to close it, I stood up for them and I will continue to stand up for them, because recovery is an important part of our city. There are people who need that help.

But I also have to balance -- and I'm going to use the word "balance" -- as an elected official that small businesses Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 pay taxes are important too. So now they need to Google the fact that the Hamburglar hasn't been the representative for McDonald's for quite some many years, but that being said, I want you to know that all sides matter, the perspective of the popular soup of the day with whatever that cause is, but people who are impacted with unintended consequences need to be heard too. And as an elected official, not a politician, because I'm only a politician when I'm running, I'm going to serve each of those constituents, whether they ever vote for me or not, because that's what I swore to do. And I applaud my colleagues who ran that hearing and who asked the tough questions. Even if some of the advanced students in the grad student section already knew what was going on, the public didn't, and they deserve to hear answers too. Thank you, Mr. President. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018

Thank you, Councilman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Parker.

Thank you, Mr. President. Speaking of unintended consequences, I want to take this opportunity to thank my colleagues who are members of City Council's Committee on Labor and Service for attending yesterday's hearing regarding the impact of medical marijuana on employment in Philadelphia. That would be Vice Chairman Councilman O'Neill, members Henon, Quinones-Sanchez, Taubenberger, Domb, and Gym. Mr. President, while we heard some insightful testimony from the business community, the legal community, the medical community, the labor community, and our District Attorney's Office, along with other City officials, it is clear that there is a host of potential unintended consequences that Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 on not only employers in the City of Philadelphia but employees. Just for the record, Mr. Speaker -- I'm getting rid of it, and that's only because you told me we're going, Mr. President. Just the thought -- and this is just from information and data that we gathered yesterday -- that someone might not be eligible to be a caregiver -- we had no idea this was an issue -- for their loved one because of a previous conviction is troubling. The notion that a medical marijuana patient could be fired from their job for failing a drug test is equally disturbing. In addition to that -- and this comes to mind because of a recent visit to CHOP's Policy Center, its Policy Lab -- that the notion that someone is suffering from PTSD -- now, I know when we think of post-traumatic stress Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 disorder, many of us just think military, but now because gun violence and violence overall is also beginning to be treated as a public health crisis, we are learning that our children and families and people who have been victims of sexual assault also suffer from what is diagnosed as PTSD. So that someone suffering from PTSD or cancer or one of the other conditions, the chronic conditions that were listed, could lose their job because they are a medical marijuana patient, that was devastating. In addition to that, we learned that -- let's just think about a 50-year-old who is a successful business person, who has led an exemplary life for decades, that they automatically become disqualified from working in the medical marijuana industry because he or she attended a concert 30 years earlier and smoked a joint is shortsighted. In addition to that, Mr. President, I want to note for the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 that our hearing highlighted some of those concerns and brought them to public light. I also want to note for the record that one of the things we talked about doing, and we've already began to put things in motion, was to get the private sector to work with us so that we can begin to develop a public education campaign for both employees and employers so they not only know their rights, but they know the risk, Mr. President, because the information is -- knowing the information and having it is half the battle, and we're going to work to make this happen. But it is also our hope and we were very encouraged by the olive branches we received from the private sector in noting that they understood our interest in seeing them, not government but the private sector, help to drive the process and lead and hopefully come up with a set of guidelines for employees Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 private sector. Now, relative to our own 27,000 municipal employees, we will be working, Mr.

President, with our executive office, along with our Council team, our Council staffs, and our unions representing municipal workers and we will be working on coming up with a rubric and a legislative prescription, if necessary and applicable, to ensure that the City of Philadelphia is a model employer and that we do everything we can to protect municipal employees who would also happen to be medical marijuana patients. Finally, I want to just note for the record that, Councilman O'Neill, I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiments and just want to note for the record that we will submit via a formal letter and documentation to the Governor, along with the legislative leadership in Harrisburg, as the state is crafting its regulations on this still evolving subject, and we will count on all of Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 help us as we move forward in that effort, as I am often reminded of our action taken when we were working on, from a land use perspective, on the implementation of medical marijuana here in the City of Philadelphia, and we want to make sure that we just get these details right, so even whatever action we move forward with, districts and people across the City don't get negatively impacted by any unintended consequences. Thank you for your patience, Mr. President. And I also want to say -and many of you may know this lady on another issue. I want to send a special prayer to my good friend and former member of the Pennsylvania General Assembly and, that is, Mike Gerber, who is an attorney and business person here in the City, but while we were here, I received a text message saying that Penny Gerber passed away. Now, while the Gerber family Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Montgomery County, Councilwoman Reynolds Brown, when you think about trailblazers like our Augusta Clark and Marian Tasco, women like Colleen Alexander and Penny Gerber were laying the foundation in the suburbs so that women could have a seat at the table, Councilwoman Blackwell, relative to politics. And so a friend of mine just sent me this message saying that Penny Gerber was a special lady. She was tough and graceful, forceful and warm, and she never backed down. She was one of the first women to go through Chase's banking program in the 1960s when there were no women on Wall Street. She was the CEO of a Teamsters unionized transportation company and, in her final years, was totally engaged in politics. And, Mr. President, if you know Montgomery County politics, sometimes she as the vice chair appeared to wield more influence than even the male chairman. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 to Mike Gerber and all of his family, and we will continue to remember the legacy of Ms. Penny Gerber. Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Reynolds Brown.

Thank you, Mr. President. Today I introduced legislation designed to yield additional revenue for the School District of Philadelphia given its anticipated projected $900 million deficit. I might add a footnote that this is actually an amended version of a bill I introduced in 2012 with the partnership of Representative Vanessa Lowery Brown, and for a host of reasons, the timing was not right. As legislators responsible for ensuring taxpayer dollars and City resources are spent wisely, I am of the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 to exhaust all available alternatives before asking taxpayers to give up more of their hard-earned dollars. This time I believe the time is ripe, R-I-P-E, to reconsider extended hours for restaurants and bars as a vehicle for additional revenue for our city. And I would be remiss not to say thank you to State Representative Jordan Harris, as we've been working in a collaborative way over the past many weeks, because Harrisburg would have to allow the City of Philadelphia to explore this opportunity. Let the record reflect that Representative Harris has been a real leader on this issue in Harrisburg, as he actually introduced a similar version in 2016. Let this legislation be the conversation starter on creative, non-traditional, some might argue unorthodox ways that we should pursue to Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 for our school. I know that this program will require close coordination and open communication with neighborhood groups, District Councilmembers who will have a lot of say as we go forward, the business community, the hospitality community, and the Philadelphia Police Department. I look forward to what I will know will be a robust conversation, but also ultimately a friendly debate. Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Bass.

Thank you, Mr. President. So just a couple of things I wanted to mention. And the first, I wanted to echo and really lift up my colleagues who were at the hearing on Monday around substance abuse and opioid addiction, and in attendance were Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Greenlee, Henon, Taubenberger, Jones, Gym, Squilla, and Sanchez, and of course it was Councilwoman Sanchez's resolution which brought us here to have this very important conversation. But this was something that to suggest that the members of Council were less than interested or somehow had not done their homework or were unfamiliar with this very important issue is just flat-out wrong. The idea behind Council and hearings in particular is to bring items to the forefront and to have transparency around issues when we ask questions. And so we were never able to get off of the first panel because there were so many questions for the Administration in terms of how tax dollars are spent, what are we doing as a city to combat this issue. And so we can't move beyond having that conversation with the Administration until it's properly flushed out. And so I just really wanted to, Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 one, thank all of my colleagues and really all members of Council for being supportive of us as we try to deal with a very, very, very difficult issue. The second thing I wanted to mention is that today I introduced a resolution around continuing a conversation around the Department of Human Services' relationship with Community Umbrella Agencies, also known as CUAs, which are contractually obligated to provide services to Philadelphia's most vulnerable children and families in their care. On February 7th, the Committee of Public Health and Human Services held an extensive hearing around the CUA Score Card. And while that conversation is ongoing, this is a part of that issue that also needs to be flushed out when you think about the possibility of discrimination against the LGBTQ community. The possibility that we as Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 agencies with an anti-LGBTQ policy is absolutely unacceptable. We as a city have extensively talked about ways to be more inclusive, affirm and support all people of every background. We've investigated and we've legislated. The City has in place laws that prohibit discrimination, so how could this be happening? The City's Fair Practices Ordinance is clear, but is possibly being violated. And so we really look forward to getting that information out and on the record as the first in several steps that we need to do to fix that particular issue, and looking forward to having that conversation. And last, but not least, I just wanted to invite everyone over to the Wawa Welcome America Council briefing immediately after session. I'm very excited to welcome the leadership of Wawa Welcome America to City Council, and as the Chair of the Committee on Parks, Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Affairs, I can say that they brought an unprecedented level of energy, vibrancy, and vision to one of the nation's biggest free events. In addition to showcasing civic pride, the staff will continue to embrace diversity and inclusiveness as a key focus of the festival's programming and outreach. So we certainly hope folks could come over after session and hear the briefing and also enjoy the free lunch. Thank you.

Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Blackwell.

Thank you, Mr. President. I wanted to say thank you to Councilwoman Bass and to the Committee on Monday. Having eight panels, they broke at Panel 1 so that we could have our Education hearing. We'd Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 they not been kind enough to do so. So that was such an important issue, and it was so kind of them to do that. They didn't have to. When you're running a hearing, certainly you are in charge. So I wanted to say thank you. Thank you to her and thank you to the Committee.

Thank you, Councilwoman.

Thank you.

The Chair recognizes Councilman Domb.

Thank you, Council President. Just two quick items. Sunday morning I actually flew to Austin, Texas to go to South by Southwest and support our Philadelphia tech community, came back Monday night. And Philadelphia for the first time had its own Amplify Philly House there with over 50 to 100 tech people from Philadelphia, and we had Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 house from almost every mayor city across the United States, whether it was Seattle, Washington. It was unbelievable how interesting and important it is for Philadelphia. And they were like really into the sessions. We had 11 different sessions, including a tech session on diversity, and Todd Carmichael from La Colombe was there speaking about his company. But it was phenomenal for the City to see that happen. We have this great spot in Austin. Fortunately none of us got hurt from those terrible things that happened there, but it was a great event for Philadelphia, and people were coming in there from Washington saying, hey, this is better than the DC House. So it was really good for our city. And the second thing, which I have to talk about today because we're four weeks away from the deadline of April 17th, is the Earned Income Tax Credit. And we're still not getting the Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 city. It's still $100 million. There's still 40,000 people not getting the money. And the more we talk about it, hopefully the more people will get it. Just to go over specifics, a single parent with two children who makes 45,000 or less, a couple who makes 50,000 with two children can get a check from the federal government up to $5,616 and file back three additional years. So you can get almost close to four years, which is almost $22,000 or $23,000. It's a lot money. And if you have more children under the age of 18, the checks are even bigger. Last year I donated space at the North American Building at Broad and Sansom, and it was open for four months. We actually -- the finals, we gave out over $4 and a half million of refunds to 4,100 people. This year for those people listening, we have a location at 15th and Walnut. I've donated the old LA Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 space, the Drexel Building. It's 24,000 feet. Campaign for Working Families, United Way, and the Department of Revenue all involved. And so if people are looking for these refunds, they'll fill out the tax returns for free. It's at 15th and Walnut. There's about 18 or 19 other sites that Campaign for Working Families maintains, and we need to get the money back to the people to the City. This money comes out of our federal withholding tax. When that hundred million doesn't come back into our city, it's not fair to those 40,000 people. It's almost like a transfer of wealth out of Philadelphia by it not coming back. So thank you, and want to make sure as many people apply as possible. Thanks.

Thank you, Councilman. Thank you for your persistence on that very important Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 Councilman Jones.

Yes. Very quick, Mr. President. I know everybody noticed, but Bill Foster is not here today. I asked permission if I could say this. He is undergoing heart surgery as we speak. And if you've never seen any of his photos, he has a Facebook, Bill Foster on Facebook, and he captures those moments both in Council and throughout the City that memorialize what we as a city, as a family are going through. And I just thought if people who are listening or people in this Chamber could go on his Facebook and wish him well so that when he wakes up to that, it's encouragement for him to get his butt back to work and stop loafing. All right? Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you, Councilman. Stated Meeting March 15, 2018 today. And with that, the Chair recognizes Councilwoman Reynolds Brown for a motion to adjourn.

Thank you, Mr. President. I move that Council stand adjourned until Thursday, March 22nd, 2018 at 10:00 a.m. (Duly seconded.)
