Newly released records show a Green Bay alderman faced some uncomfortable allegations earlier this year after he allegedly made inappropriate comments to a city employee.

According to city documents, Guy Zima referenced the Kim Kardashian wedding night sex tape and asked if she had done something similar.

The employee felt "very uncomfortable" about the comments and thought they were "creepy," the documents said.

Zima said he was sorry several times for his comments, documents showed, explaining that his, "mouth had gotten ahead of his brain" and he "didn't want anyone to feel bad."

He also wrote in a letter to the Green Bay City Attorney that he felt the allegations were being "promoted, pushed and insisted on by Mayor James Schmitt."

No formal complaints were filed, but because of the incident and other comments made by Zima, he is now required to meet with other employees in a city office and two employees must be present, according to city records.
