Councilor Fred Capone announced this week that he intends to run for mayor, saying he will run to bring in an administration that has respect for one another and has a goal of promoting prosperity and inclusion for every resident of the city.
Capone announced his candidacy online with a video message late last week, making the news known in a one-minute video released online where he announced his bid from his office. Then, this week he officially put his reasonings on paper early this week – explaining why he is running and “Everett’s future is bright, but there is much more that needs to be done in the present,” he wrote. “After 14 years of the same administration, the time has come for a change at City Hall so that all our voices are heard…There are many wonderful opportunities ahead for our city and they shouldn’t be squandered.

MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU-WDLB) The Marshfield Common Council has a new leader, and thus, a new person filling the duties of the Mayor’s office.
After two consecutive 5-to-5 tie votes by the city’s 10 aldermen last night, a coin flip put District Two representative Nick Poeschel in the role of Common Council President, replacing District Six Alderman Tom Witzel.
And since the Council voted to remove Bob McManus from the Mayor’s office on March 22nd, the Council President has been–and will continue–fulfilling the baseline duties of that office, like signing official city documents and presiding over Council meetings. The future of the Mayor’s office will be up for discussion next Tuesday, April 27th, after the Council last week decided to wait until new Alderman Brian Varsho took his seat in District Four.

At Monday night’s meeting of the Sheboygan Common Council a resolution was introduced by all ten Alderpersons commemorating the distinguished service of Michael Vandersteen to the City of Sheboygan. That final measure closes the era in Sheboygan’s Mayoral office that began 8 years ago when then 61-year-old County Board Chairman Mike Vandersteen won election to his first of two four-year terms as Mayor.
Today, 27-year-old Ryan Sorenson takes over after a quick rise from Alderperson to Common Council President last June, and now to the city’s top office.
Sorenson defeated Vandersteen in the past spring election 4,417 to 3,113.
