This fare hike is a direct result of the state's failure to properly fund transit, and our communities are paying the price. When we return to Harrisburg later this month, securing transit funding will be a top priority. We can’t afford to wait any longer
SEPTA announces proposed fare adjustments - including the elimination of a number of discounts as the Authority faces a $240 million annual budget deficit. Public hearings will take place on October 16 at 10AM and 4PM: wwww.septa.org/bulletins/fal…. #ISEPTAPHILLY #waytogo

Check the record! I didn’t prevent, facts matter. I created tools, most folks understand that respecting neighbors is important to their projects. This developer did not and now he has carry cost that he wants to recoup making a more reasonable development almost impossible.
What a horrible thing to say about residents in Philadelphia who rent. This is a former Philadelphia City Council member who prevented 100 plus units from being built on a lot that needed a zoning variance. Unfortunately this is way too common in Philadelphia & needs to change.

Didn’t have “Receiving a Best of Philly Award alongside The Chicken Man and the PPA” on my bingo card. In all seriousness, it is an honor to be recognized with my fellow “Council First” recipient, @NinaAhmadPHL.
