A first look at McPherson Square renovation plans, city to continue gathering input
After seeing the redesign plans for McPherson Square Park and Library, residents asked for more shade, and requested the library stay open during construction.
Ceiba, a coalition of Latinx community organizations located on the southwest corner of Norris Square, created a step-by-step video in English and Spanish that demonstrates how to complete a mail-in ballot for Pennsylvania’s 2020 primary election.
The primary election, which includes the presidential primary and a number of state and local races, takes place on June 2. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, polling places have been reduced in Philadelphia to about 20%, which has led to state and local officials encouraging people to vote by mail instead.
Once completed, ballots can be mailed back using the pre-paid envelope, turned into this dropbox at City Hall or delivered to the Philadelphia County Board of Elections office (City Hall, room 142) by 8 p.m. on June 2 otherwise they will not be considered.
Please visit Votes PA online for more information about mail-in ballots.
