The change in activity might be attributable to its new Executive Director, Richard Lazer.

That last name seems kinda appropriate, given the new PPA focus, lol.

Lazer has always struck me as way more competent, focused, and dedicated than most Philly politicians/bureaucrats. Would not be surprised or upset if we start seeing him be given more and more responsibilities over the next few years.
