An Act authorizing the Department of General Services, with the approval of the Governor, to grant and convey to the Philadelphia Housing Authority certain lands situate in the City of Philadelphia, Philadelphia County.
SB 34 authorizes Pennsylvania to sell approximately 1.71 acres of land at 2100 West Girard Avenue in Philadelphia to the Philadelphia Housing Authority (PHA) for $50,000. The bill requires PHA to develop the property exclusively as senior housing and mixed-income affordable housing within five years (with a possible 10-year extension), including a certificate of occupancy for each component. If development isn’t completed on time or the property is used for other purposes (like licensed facilities), the land must revert to the state. This transfer affects PHA’s housing projects and future residents of the planned development.
