A man who won a spot on the Waterloo City Council has pleaded guilty to public intoxication charges. Court records say Chris Shimp entered a guilty plea earlier this week. Shimp was arrested in October by UNI Police. Less than a month later, he won the ward five election in Waterloo, beating Cody Leistikow for the spot.
Shimp agreed to pay a $100 fine, along with court costs.
