About public works agendas
Summary
In this section of EveryBlock, we publish addresses and locations found in agenda items for the Public Property and Public Works committee of Philadelphia's city council. Here, you can find out when the committee plans public hearings to discuss city property or buildings near you.
In the hearings, committee members consider what action, if any, should be taken for each agenda item — and the discussions are open to the public. Note that this committee doesn't consider matters relating to city parks.

The data comes from the Meetings Calendar published by the city council. This list includes agendas for the Public Property and Public Works committee.
Agendas are posted to the calendar before meetings. We at EveryBlock monitor the calendar and add items as soon as we're able.
