Council Term Limits Vote
Summary
Wilmington City Council voted down term limits and staggered elections for its own members, so sitting council members won’t face new caps on how long they can serve. If you wanted more turnover or a different election schedule, this vote went against you; if you prefer stability and incumbency, it went your way.
