> City Now Debt Free
(Harrisburg, PA) -- The City of Harrisburg has taken the final steps to be debt-free. Mayor Wanda Williams says the city on Friday made the last of its scheduled payments to get out of a 125-million-dollar debt, with interest, that had accrued over the last 25 years. She says money spent previously on paying off debt bonds through the years will now go toward city services that will improve the quality of life for all residents.
