Reforming Fines & Fees Locally
Wilmington Fines and Fees Justice Team
The Wilmington Fines and Fees Justice Team is a collaboration of community members and City Council members pushing for reforms in Wilmington's fines and fees and collections practices, with a focus on parking/red light tickets and water billing.
Why We Need Fines and Fees Reform
Research by the University of Delaware shows that the City of Wilmington depends more on revenue from fines and fees than most other cities.

In Wilmington, residents, community organizations and some city Council members are organizing to make ticketing, fines, and water debt collections more fair and equitable.
