Masonboro Residents United

Our taxes are rising. Our services aren't.

The City of Wilmington is raising taxes significantly on Masonboro residents while the quality of city services in our area remains largely unchanged. It's time to make our voices heard — and explore de-annexation from the city.

Why Masonboro Residents Are Speaking Up

Rising City Taxes

Wilmington has approved substantial tax increases that directly affect Masonboro homeowners and businesses — with more increases likely on the horizon.

Services Haven't Kept Pace

Despite paying more each year, residents see little change in the quality or availability of city services in the Masonboro area.

Exploring De-Annexation

De-annexation is a legal process that allows communities to separate from a city. We are organizing to understand our options and take action together.
