Philadelphia Mayor Indicates Council Support for PGW Project Is Unlikely
Philadelphia Mayor Street says a contract between PGW and the developer of its “progressive and forward-thinking” LNG proposal is unlikely to receive support from the City Council. “I think there is a chance that it can happen,” Street said, but added “people are just so reluctant to change.” Friday’s Philadelphia Daily News reports that Council members on Thursday are expected to vote on a resolution that articulates that Council’s opposition to LNG development in the city or LNG tankers traversing the Delaware River.
