Fagan understands the city and what it needs

It is with great delight that I anticipate Brian Fagan as the next mayor of Cedar Rapids! Brian took over during the flood and was just a beaming spokesman for my hometown, and for our community, a man who truly got things done and continues to do so.
Brian knows and understands how our city works and has been the most active member on our city council. Brian grew up close to Wellington Heights and understands the need to clean up our city and make it a safe place again. Brian comes from a grounded family setting, with parents and siblings I would be proud to call my very own. His work ethic speaks for itself.
Finally, Brian has vision to move forward, to rebuild our city, to make it the best Cedar Rapids for generations to come.
