Wausau's ethics board found Mayor Doug Diny violated the code by moving a ballot drop box without permission.
The Wausau Ethics Board found Mayor Doug Diny violated the city’s ethics code in September 2024 by moving an absentee ballot drop box from outside City Hall to his office without authorization, citing clear evidence he acted beyond his lawful authority.
The move, intended to prevent theft, was challenged by the city clerk and sparked a complaint.
The board ruled the action contravened ethics code section 2.03.030 paragraph J, which prohibits officials from exceeding their authority.
No penalty was imposed, but the decision stands as a formal finding of misconduct.
The Wisconsin Department of Justice is also investigating the incident.
