Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney
PHILADELPHIA—The administration of Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney continues to promote the benefits of the controversial beverage tax imposed three years ago.
The city's Rebuild program reports that in the first 12 months since the beverage tax funding was released, work has begun at 61 facilities across the city. The work represents $126 million of new investment that has been committed or expanded earmarked to mostly high needs neighborhoods, city officials state.
