Kronenwetter's troubles with administration continue

If Monday's agenda is any indication, it doesn't sound like the latest hire is coming

It looks like Kronenwetter will be going back to the drawing board after another candidate, Peter Kampfer, isn’t going to work out.

When it comes to administration, Kronenwetter’s troubles don’t seem to have any end in sight.

On Monday, the village will decide whether or not to rescind its offer to Peter Kampfer to become the next village administrator.

Kampfer’s start had already been delayed since he was hired in September by the village board. Kampfer is a Wausau-area native but most of his work was in the Texas area. There were some “hiccups” to his starting, Village President Chris Voll told WSAU at the time.

According to the agenda, the offer has now expired. A later agenda item calls for the village’s public works director, Leonard Ludi, to serve as administrator.

What happened to Kampfer? The Wausonian reached out to Village President Chris Voll and did not receive a response. But insiders gave us the scoop.
