Civic Issues
Topics getting the most attention in Wilmington public meetings, ranked by how frequently they are discussed.
3 issues in general with medium priority
Law Department Workforce Diversity
Council unanimously urged the Law Department to recruit and retain a more diverse legal workforce, citing three current vacancies, 13 departures since 2016, and a statewide shortage of minority attorneys.
City Department Leadership
Wilmington has a new head of Parks and Recreation, so the city’s parks and rec programs may start shifting direction. If you use rec centers, youth sports, senior programs, or local parks, this is a leadership change worth watching.
Street Cleaning
Wilmington is reminding residents that street cleaning is happening, and you need to move your car or you could get a ticket. It’s a simple heads-up, but ignoring it can cost you.
