On February 10, 2026, the Wilmington Charter Public Steering Committee will host its 6th quarterly meeting since 2024 at the Murphy Theatre, located at 50 W Main Street. There will be a Q&A led by Wilmington College Director of Individual Giving, Sydney Murtland, with guest speakers from the City of Mt. Healthy, Ohio, including Mayor Jennifer Moody, City Manager Scott Bauer, and members of their city council.
The committee shared that while they typically have guests from cities similar in populations as Wilmington, members of Mt. Healthy's administration have family ties in Clinton County and were excited to share the benefits of local Charter City government.
The City of Mt. Healthy is located in Hamilton County, a suburb of Cincinnati, with a population of 6,996, nearly half the size of Wilmington. Mayor Moody will share information and answer questions about her professional and political background, the city's history of local charter government, and unique challenges and opportunities their city faces that relate to Wilmington.
Mt. Healthy's charter document established a "Mayor-Council- Manager" form of local government. Voters elect seven at-large city council members with staggered four-year terms from a partisan ballot. The mayor is also elected by voters, and appoints a city manager with city council approval based on "executive and administrative qualifications." The city manager is the "Chief Executive and Administrative Officer of the City."
The Wilmington Charter Steering Committee hosts quarterly meetings with speakers from nearby charter cities to share information with local residents. Past guests include Tipp City, South Lebanon, Loveland, Trenton, and Washington Court House.
