Good
morning,
chairperson,
thomas
and
members
of
the
streets
and
services
committee,
my
name
is
noelle
marconi
and
I'm
the
director
of
legislative
affairs
for
the
department
of
streets,
I'm
here
today
to
offer
testimony
on
bill
number
211020
introduced
by
councilmember
johnson.
This
bill
authorizes
the
owner
to
construct
own
and
maintain
an
encroachment
in
the
form
of
an
open
air
cafe
on
the
sidewalk
located
at
762,
south
10th
street.
The
cafe
includes
a
total
of
11
table
and
chairs.
E
Seven
tables
will
be
with
chairs,
will
be
located
adjacent
to
the
building
and
encroach
across
approximately
six
feet
onto
the
north
sidewalk
of
catherine
street,
leaving
approximately
six
feet
of
clear,
unobstructed,
footway
four
tables
with
chairs
will
be
located
adjacent
to
the
building
and
encroach
approximately
six
feet
onto
the
west.
Sidewalk
of
south
10th
street,
leaving
approximately
six
feet
of
clear,
unobstructed,
footway
the
streets
department
has
no
objections
to
these
proposed
encroachments
and
supports
the
passage
of
this
bill.
B
B
A
F
This
bill
codifies
two
changes
made
last
year
to
the
city's
commercial
tragedy
or
refuse
fee.
First,
it
increases
the
fee
amount
from
300
to
500
from
fiscal
year
21
onwards.
This
increase
was
originally
enacted
via
regulation
to
help
make
up
philadelphia's
budget
gap
during
the
first
few
months
of
the
copa
19
pandemic.
Even
with
this
increase,
the
weekly
cost
of
trash
pickup
is
less
than
ten
dollars
per
pickup
and
far
below
many
commercial
services.
F
The
bill
also
fully
exempts
owner
occupied
duplexes
from
the
fee
from
fiscal
year
2022
onwards,
these
property
types
previously
qualified
for
a
50
fee
reduction
to
provide
additional
financial
relief
to
owner
occupants.
The
city
expanded
its
exemption
for
owner
owner-occupied
properties
to
include
duplexes
to
qualify.
The
owner
must
live
in
one
unit
and
have
one
other
rental
unit.
