Knowing nothing about Philly codes, it's not possible to do this. Typical garbage disposals use 15-20 amps & a dishwasher 10 amps. They will not fit on the same 20 amp circuit.
They should each have their own GFI circuit.

Your link is wrong, 1 horsepower (the biggest a normal disposal is) is about 750 watts, so 6 amps ish. The inrush current to start will be a lot larger, though.
