Due to the COVID-19 health crisis and the City of Philadelphia’s resulting budget shortfall, the proposed elimination of the Office of the City Representative went into effect on Monday, June 1, 2020.
Please use the information provided below to stay connected to City resources during this transition.
- The function of creating ceremonial documents and other services provided by the Office of the City Representative will be determined during the ongoing transition of our services to the Mayor’s Office.
