HB 2720: An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, in tax credit and tax benefit administration, further providing for definitions; and providing for green infrastructure tax credit.

This Pennsylvania bill creates a new tax incentive to encourage the installation of green infrastructure, such as rain gardens, green roofs, and permeable pavement, on properties within the state. It defines "green infrastructure" as stormwater management practices that reduce or reuse runoff and sets rules for claiming a tax credit based on qualified costs like design, materials, and installation. To receive the credit, taxpayers must complete a certified project and submit detailed documentation to the Department of Revenue, while excluding costs covered by grants or routine maintenance. The legislation also updates the legal definition of "tax credit" to include this new program alongside existing state tax benefits.

HB 2703: An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in general provisions, further providing for definitions; in special vehicles and pedestrians, further providing for penalty for violation of subchapter; and, in powers of department and local authorities, further providing for specific powers of department and local authorities.

This bill updates Pennsylvania vehicle laws to formally define "pedalcycles with electric assist" and sets specific rules for how local authorities can regulate them. It establishes that these vehicles must weigh no more than 100 pounds, have operable pedals, and be limited to speeds of 20 or 28 miles per hour, while explicitly excluding devices designed for people with disabilities. The legislation also creates a new category of fines for violations, increasing penalties for operating these e-bikes compared to standard bicycles, and grants local governments the power to restrict where these vehicles can be ridden on roads or sidewalks. However, the bill explicitly prohibits state or local officials from requiring owners to register, insure, or license these specific electric bicycles.
