Onalaska Proposes Hiring Snowflake Fire Chief

It will be interesting to hear how the psychological evaluation for employment came out on this guy.

This article from a month after the 2016 presidential election he admits that Trump being elected has drained his emotions. It's worrisome in itself, that our city officials (unelected people on the police and fire commission) want to hire a guy from the swamp (Washington D.C.) to be the manager of our small town fire department. Much less a guy who writes like an emotional snowflake.

Couldn't we find a stable, experienced fireman locally to keep our trucks polished and hoses in good shape? This guy sounds like he wants to have group therapy with our municipal employees.

I hope our ELECTED officials (city council) do their jobs and send this hiring proposal to the trash can and direct our police and fire commission to interview LOCAL candidates that don't base their life decisions as much on their emotions as on tried and true work ethics.

Onalaska Bully Bob Muth

Bob Muth's son Daniel and his wife Teresa have been sued at least 20 times according to CCAP.

It is clear that Bob the bully didn't do a very good job of raising his children. How many young people have been sued 20 times?

Bob is a failure at being an alderman, he is resigning his seat in disgrace amid scandals, sexual misconduct and embezzlement. It appears he is a failure at being a parent also, raising a drug addict and a dead-beat.

Joel Chilsen the most scandalous mayor since Marion Barry?

Mayor Chilsen is presiding over one of the most scandalous/corrupt municipal governments this blogger has ever seen. It started with his election where he fraudulently signed nomination papers attesting that he personally circulated them when he knew that to be false. How can a guy claim to make a mistake (multiple times) on one of the simplest government forms, when he is a senior lecturing professor at UWL? It simply cannot be believed that he didn't understand what the form said, but that he thinks he doesn't have to follow the law.

In 2016 mayor Chilsen was on the St. Patrick’s Catholic Church finance committee (who's job it is to keep track of the money) when Barbara Snyder the church secretary stole $832,000! He must not have much finance acumen, or is it possible that this woman DIDN'T actually gamble it all away at the casino, but more believably split the loot with some local accomplices who looked the other way for her, or otherwise helped her launder the money.

Then in 2016 we have mayor Chilsen's employee Kari Neumann who stole more than $70,000 right out from under Chilsen's nose at city hall! When attempted to be contacted by the La Crosse Tribune Mayor Joe Chilsen declined to comment about the case, and did not return phone calls. What is he hiding? An honest mayor would have talked to the press.

For years we have the police chief who worked under the same roof as mayor Chilsen running all over town having affairs with married women and threatening citizens that talked about his cheating, even taking shirtless selfies in his City of Onalaska office! Was the mayor not paying attention? When the chief's philandering was brought to Chilsen's attention in 2017 he claimed that he couldn't do anything about the behavior because Trotnic was undergoing sex-addition treatment making it a medical condition. State law mandates that a mayor with ANY information of police misconduct alleged or proven MUST bring the issue to the City's Police and Fire Commission for review. This was never brought (legally) to the city's police and fire commission.

In 2017 city administrator Eric Rindfleisch uncovered a large stash of file boxes in the city hall store room containing thousands of unprocessed citations and summons from many many years of police work. Mayor Chilsen and his staff fought for weeks to allow citizen watchdogs their legal right to inspect these records. What is the mayor trying to hide? The investigation into WHY these hundreds or thousands of citations were not processed is still underway. I suspect we will find that Chilsen, Trotnic and Judge Brinckman are VERY dirty!

Recently on February 23 Chilsen told city officials that he "fired Chief Trotnic and escorted him out of city hall", then lied to the media claiming that Trotnic resigned "to pursue other job opportunities". Which is it mayor? When asked for comment by local media Chilsen refused to divulge the circumstances that led Trotnic to offer the resignation.

UPDATE - Thursday Mar 1 2017 it's being reported that the Onalaska Fire Chief Don Dominick will "retire" this summer, when in fact the mayor has stated to city officials that the police and fire commission fired him for performance reasons. For that to be legally done it would have to have been on the police and fire commission meeting agenda, and a public meeting would have to be held. Again Joe Chilsen either doesn't understand the LAWS on how municipal government works, or just thinks he is above the law!

This is a developing story that will clearly continue to develop as long as Joel Chilsen is "working" in Onalaska city hall.
