Wilmington Weekly with Matt Purkey

Episode Fourteen - Council Wrap Up (4/2/26) and Reflections


Listen Later

In Episode Fourteen, Matt wraps up Wilmington City Council’s April 2, 2026 workshop and regular meeting. He covers the swearing-in of Officer McKenna Branham, Ron King’s introduction from the Clinton County Veterans Service Commission, the five-year Union Township fire and EMS renewal, the Sugar Grove Cemetery bridge supplemental, surplus police vehicles, and the new cemetery foundation-guidelines ordinance. The regular meeting itself moved quickly, with downtown parking finally passing on third reading, landfill notes advancing, and very little discussion on the floor. Matt also looks ahead to upcoming committee meetings, Planning Commission’s next meeting, and the renewed rec center conversation, before reflecting on O-17-13 and the city’s annual utility-rate review process.
