Council reviews surplus-property resolution and routine $1.65 million note issuance for landfill work
Summary
Council committees reported a resolution declaring surplus property (including 21 police phones) and discussed ordinance 25-13 to issue notes not to exceed $1,650,000 for landfill expansion financing; staff described the borrowing as routine and no vote details were recorded in the transcript.
During committee reports and the finance segment of the Wilmington City Council meeting, councilors discussed Resolution 25‑04, which would declare several city items surplus, and Ordinance 25‑13, authorizing the issuance of notes not to exceed $1,650,000 related to landfill expansion work.
Finance Committee chair Mr. Osborne introduced three finance items including Resolution 25‑04, noting there are multiple surplus items and that the police department has 21 phones to dispose of. Council discussion did not produce substantive debate on the surplus items; one councilor corrected the count during the exchange and meeting text alternately referenced five and six items alongside the 21 phones.
Later in the agenda, Oliver Vance presented Ordinance 25‑13, describing the proposed note issuance as the city’s routine annual financing step tied to ongoing landfill expansion phases and successive borrowing as projects move forward. Vance told councilors the process has been used successfully in prior years and offered to answer questions; the transcript records no further questions and no formal vote tally in the meeting record.
The transcript does not report a roll-call vote or final outcomes for either Resolution 25‑04 or Ordinance 25‑13. Councilors moved through committee reports quickly and set the items for further processing as part of the normal legislative workflow.
