Ex-Green Bay Mayor Schmitt part of lawsuit filed by conservative radio host

(This story has been updated to add new information.) A lawsuit has disclosed Green Bay mayoral candidate Jim Schmitt’s financial backing of conservative radio talk show “ The Regular Joe Show ” as the Schmitt campaign distances his associations to the Republican Party. Schmitt was one of several initial investors who bought into RWB Productions Inc., a company created in August 2021 by Joe Giganti to earn money for the radio show, which launched in 2018 on WTAQ and highlighted conservative politics. Schmitt has been president of the company since at least December 2022, later firing Giganti in 2023, according to court filings. Giganti's radio show, self-described as a "home for consistent conservatism without apology," continued to run under a separate LLC called Fearsome 5 ever since. In an intentional tort lawsuit filed in June at the Brown County Courthouse, RWB Productions alleged that Giganti breached his fiduciary duty of loyalty to the company by loaning money to himself without company approval, paying third parties “exorbitant amounts of money belong to RWB without RWB receiving due consideration in return” and directing company funds to his personal use. The company's filing did not initially name Schmitt or the other investors by

Unexpected underground conditions adds costs to street project

MARINETTE — At its Nov. 4 meeting, the Marinette Common Council approved a $32,909 change order for street reconstruction after contractor Barley Excavating encountered underground conditions that had not been known when the project was designed and were not included in the bid. The work involved Eggener and Wells streets and the change order was allocated among wastewater, water and stormwater utilities. During discussion, City Engineer Brian Miller described an old building foundation discovered on Eggener Street and on Nestegg Marine’s property. Miller also reported a large electrical transmission duct running along Wells Street, encased in concrete reaching as deep as 10 feet below grade. Also, at the intersection of Eggener and Wells, the existing water main was found completely encased in concrete. These unexpected obstructions required work beyond what had been anticipated in the original design and bid leading to the additional cost. The council also approved the recommended increases to cemetery fees after hearing that local rates had remained unchanged after many years. City Clerk Lana Bero compared Marinette’s charges with those of similarly sized, city-owned cemeteries. Bero reported that other communities charged about $900 to $1,000 for a grave space, while Marinette’s current price was $650. The
