Your RCO’s boundaries and contact information will be shown both on a map and list that will appear on a public website created by the City. The City Planning Commission website will link to the RCO list. In addition, the City’s zoning map will include this information. The website will be operational by August 22nd when RCO.officially take effect with the new zoning code.
In order to retain RCO status, organizations will need to submit a renewal application each year in June. PCPC will send you a renewal application several weeks in advance of the renewal period. There is no cost to renew your RCO status.

Methadone Clinic Demonstation

We in Tacony stand united with our neighbors in Mayfair and Holmesburg on this issue.

Good Afternoon,

The appellees in the suit against the THW are planning a demonstration at 7900 Frankford Avenue on July 19, 2012 at 6PM. The purpose of the demonstration is for the community to once again come together in a show of unity and request that the THW withdraw their appeal. The Mayfair Civic Association is assisting with the planning and coordination of this event just as they did last year.

We are extending an invitation to you and the members of your association to participate in this event and hear the community on this very important community issue. Please share this information with your members.

Thank you!!

Lori Prete, Melissa Casey, Patti Vaughn, Domenick and Dawn Parris
