Staff says municipal judge Carol Wagner is willing to be reappointed
Summary
Staff told the council there were no applicants who met current requirements for the municipal judge post and that incumbent Carol Wagner has been contacted and "is willing to be reappointed." The chair asked to confirm the judge's interest; no motion or vote was recorded.
A staff member told the Cuba City Council that no candidates had applied who met the current requirements for the municipal judge position and that the incumbent, Carol Wagner, has been contacted and is willing to be reappointed.
"Carol Wagner has been serving as your municipal judge," the staff member said, adding that Wagner "is willing to be reappointed if you so choose." The remark came as staff summarized the absence of qualified applicants and presented the option of retaining the current judge rather than reopening the recruitment.
Council leadership responded by asking to check directly with the person holding the position. The chair asked the meeting to allow staff to approach the incumbent to confirm whether she would accept reappointment. No formal motion, second, or vote was recorded on the matter during the discussion.
The exchange left the council with two clear next steps: (1) staff follow up to confirm the judge's interest, and (2) council members decide at a subsequent meeting whether to place a reappointment on the agenda for formal action. The meeting record does not show any formal appointment, vote, or authorized contract amendment during the session.
