Collingdale Borough Council will consider establishing a human relations commission and adopting a proposed Chapter 145 of the borough code, titled “Human Relations and Non-Discrimination.” Collingdale’s drafted legislation casts a wide protective net, prohibiting discrimination for gender identity, gender expression, age over 35, pregnancy, long Covid, height and weight, marital status, and domestic victim status, among others. The ordinance will be considered during a special public meeting on Saturday, June 21, at 2 p.m. at Collingdale Park, 500 Lincoln Ave. The meeting will occur during the borough’s Juneteenth in the Park community celebration, scheduled for noon to 4 p.m.
