GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) — Former Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmidt will not seek the office that he held for 16 years.
Schmidt, in a press release, said Friday that he “Will not be seeking the office of mayor at this time”, but added that he “Will be available to help move our community forward.”
Schmidt announced in August that he was considering a run for his old position again. He was the city’s longest serving Mayor.
Meanwhile, Green Bay Mayor Eric Genrich has announced a re-election bid. Former State Rep. Chad Weininger may challenge Genrich, but has yet to make an official announcement.
