SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) - Sheboygan Alderman Kevin Matichek is charged for having a sexual relationship with a 15 year old boy, and is under investigation for a similar relationship with a 17 year old.
Mayor Mike Vandersteen says all this is a disappointment, adding all elected city officials should be role models for the community. As for what will happen with his elected seat, Vandersteen says it could resolve itself in April. "Currently the office that he is holding is going to end in April with the coming election, and he has filed as a candidate and he does have an opponent," says Vandersteen.
Vandersteen says he is willing to let the legal system work out the matter, but the council does have the option to remove a council member if need be.
