MONROE - City council members decided the long-standing tradition of Voegeli, Ewald & Bartholf Law Offices, S.C. was the better choice for city attorney. On Tuesday, the Monroe Common Council voted 5 to 4 in favor of the law firm over Kittelsen, Barry, Wellington, Thompson and Schluesche, S.C. During its May 19 meeting, council members heard presentations from both firms. Todd Schluesche represented the Kittelsen firm, saying that nearly two decades of experience in municipal law and extensive dedication to Monroe by his fellow lawyers made Kittelsen the best choice.
