This is a wonderful opportunity for Wilmington as well as the surrounding counties. Our city needs this shot in the arm. I'm tired of hearing all the crying about your taxes going up a little. If you don't like paying a higher tax then move to a smaller town that isn't a beach community. This city has nothing but the beaches to draw people here. Wake up! There is a bypass thats going to be done soon, and its just going to make it easier for people to drive right pass Wilmington and go to Myrtle Beach and spend money. And also news flash!!!! The city is going to keep on growing, so if you are so afraid of annexation, then MOVE.

Proud to be a life long Wilmingtonian.
