15-7422 Bill 4
An ordinance of the Council of the City of Allentown Pennsylvania requiring the city to obtain and maintain a welcoming city rating and work towards a score of no less than three stars from welcoming America; codifying the city's practices related to the provision of city services without regard to refugee or immigration status and requiring city council to advocate for the adoption of similar practices and policies by other municipalities; providing for the repeal of inconsistent ordinances; providing for the severability of the ordinance; and providing that the ordinance shall take effect in accordance with Pennsylvania law.
Immigration is not a municipal level issue. Council and the administration should focus on the quality- of- life matters of the residents of Allentown, safe streets, clean neighborhoods and -well maintained infrastructure and parks, for all. I would rather see our resources committed to increased rental inspection to ensure safe living spaces.
