The Whitewater City Council selects its newest member, a UW-Whitewater student who is filling the open seat left vacant after his brother’s graduation.
20-year-old Matthew J. Schulgit will take over the District 2 seat formerly held by his older brother Jimmy, who recently graduated and plans to attend medical school.
After the council unanimously picked Schulgit Tuesday the city clerk swore him in and he sat with the council for the rest of the meeting and voted on agenda items.
Schulgit will complete the current term, which runs until April 21, 2020.
