Fagan helped shape vision during tough time

It is rather difficult for me to understand why we would vote someone into public office who has not participated in the dismal and difficult effort of reclaiming the many damaged businesses and residences of our community. Those on the Cedar Rapids City Council have endured months and months of questions and accusations. They have endured and have provided a viable vision for the future of our city.
I am proud of this city council. Certainly it is expensive and certainly it is expansive, yet it is realistic, and the plan is doable.
Please do not let a “Ronnie come lately” interfere with a well thought-out plan for Cedar Rapids' future. Please support Brian Fagan for mayor.
