Authorizing the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority to execute and deliver to the Philadelphia Land Bank deeds conveying title to 92 Collum Street, 98 Collum Street, and 5128 Wakefield Street, located in the 8th Councilmanic District, pursuant to the requirements of the Commonwealth Land Bank Act.

City Council, sponsored by Councilmember Bass, adopted Resolution No. 251092 on December 11, 2025, authorizing the Philadelphia Redevelopment Authority (PRA) to transfer ownership of three properties to the Philadelphia Land Bank (PLB). The properties are 92 Collum Street, 98 Collum Street, and 5128 Wakefield Street, all located in the 8th Councilmanic District. This transfer, conducted without monetary consideration, is mandated by the Commonwealth Land Bank Act and aims to advance the public purposes for which the PLB was established.

This action allows the Philadelphia Land Bank to acquire and potentially redevelop these three properties in the 8th Councilmanic District, which could lead to new housing opportunities or other community benefits by returning vacant or underutilized land to productive use.
