Edgecombe County town of Speed faces NC Local Government Commission pressure to dissolve, after failing to comply with LGC mandate for audits.
&&&&&&&&&&
Wilbert Harrison, 74, has been mayor since 1996. He’s used a wheelchair for the past several years since recovering from health incidents that include a stroke and tongue cancer. These days he does most of his work out of his home.
In 2023, he won what will likely be Speed’s final mayoral election, uncontested, with 12 votes.
