About Former City Councilors of Superior: The Legends, The Myths, The Survivors
Superior, Wisconsin—where city councilors come, go, and occasionally stick around long enough to develop a permanent chair groove. Our ex-councilors are a special breed—part civic leader, part cat wrangler, and always trying to remember if they approved that pothole patching contract back in ’09.
These brave souls took on the impossible: balancing city budgets with duct tape and good intentions, while dodging complaints about snow plows, barking dogs, and why the city didn’t put in that one stop sign someone’s been demanding since the 80s. They’ve sat through more marathon meetings than marathon runners actually run, and yet somehow survived to tell the tale.
Former councilors come from all walks of life—small business owners, teachers, retired folks who just wanted something to do on Tuesday nights. They’ve tackled everything from pothole diplomacy to explaining why tax increases don’t come with a free toaster. And when they finally escape—I mean, retire—they don’t just disappear. Nope, many of them still hang around, dishing out advice like political Yodas at local diners, reminding everyone how things were “back in my day.”
In Superior, ex-councilors are like local celebrities—minus the fame, fortune, and paparazzi. They may be out of office, but their stories (and opinions) live on!
