Rhinelander Mayor

Alderperson Tom Barnett is challenging incumbent Mayor Kris Hanus. The two answered questions recently at a candidate forum hosted by WXPR and WJFW.

From Timber Drive to Lois Street, the city of Rhinelander will be making improvements to about a dozen roads over the next few months.

During his run for the Mayor’s office, Hanus, who has worked in retail and property management, identified a housing as his main priority.

In less than two weeks, residents of Rhinelander will choose between two small business owners to be their new mayor.

Three candidates are on the ballot for Rhinelander mayor, but the primary election on February 15 will narrow that field to two. Kris Hanus, Steve Sauer and Bill Freudenberg are all running for the position.
