WilmingtonBiz Talk: Wilmington Mayor Saffo On The City's Budget

By Vicky Janowski, posted Jun 18, 2021

The Wilmington City Council on Tuesday passed the $242 million budget for the next fiscal year.

Like the county, it too includes a lower tax rate than before but carries expectations for slightly higher tax bills for property owners – on average $36 more – because of higher revaluations.

Joining us for this week’s WilmingtonBiz Talk was Wilmington Mayor Bill Saffo to talk about the city’s spending priorities and projects.

View the full conversation below. Also listen to this and future weekly WilmingtonBiz Talk discussions on the Business Journal's new podcast, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Stitcher.
