[2]The Parking Authority:
to provide full parking services for Philadelphia residents, businesses and visitors.[2] In popular culture it is the basis of the reality television show Parking Wars. PoliciesOff-street parkingOriginally, the Parking Authority provided parking garages and parking lots, but various city departments were responsible for on-street parking. On-street parkingIn 1982, Philadelphia City Council was authorized by the Pennsylvania General Assembly to delegate certain powers formerly exercised by various city departments to the Parking Authority. In April, 1983, City Council transferred on-street parking responsibilities to the Authority.[2] Functions transferred from the Streets Department:
Functions transferred from the Revenue Department:
Functions transferred from the Police Department:
However, both Police Department officers and SEPTA supervisors can issue parking tickets. Functions transferred from the Department of Licenses and Inspections:
A vast majority of revenue for On-Street parking for PPA is generated from ticketing violations (63%) and meter parking (29%). Other revenue categories comprise less than 9% of PPA's On-Street parking income.[3] BootingA program to "boot" repeat parking violation offenders was authorized by City Council in 1983.[2] Taxicabs and limousinesThe Authority was authorized by the General Assembly in July 2004 to regulate taxis and limousines operating in the city, and to adopt and enforce regulations for their operations.[2] Pilot red light safety programThe Authority has been authorized by the General Assembly to administer a pilot red light enforcement program.[2] Cameras are installed at intersections with a high accident rate, and fines are imposed for motorists who run red lights. Notices are sent by mail to offenders, based on photos of license plates and the motorists themselves.[4] StaffPPA Executive Staff
Board MembersOriginally, the Authority's Board of Directors was controlled by city officials, but the legislature, acting at the initiative of Representative John Perzel,[5] has shifted control to state officials, including the Governor and officers of the legislature.[6]
