CEDAR RAPIDS Part-time mayor. Full-time grandfather.
Those will be Mayor Brad Hart’s occupations in the New Year after he retires this week as a business lawyer from the Cedar Rapids law firm Bradley & Riley, where he’s practiced since 1990.
Hart’s law career spans nearly 40 years, with his first years spent practicing in Houston.
“It’s been rewarding, but it’s a hard job, and so I’ve always been planning to do this for a while now,” said Hart, 65.
Hart said he expects to make a decision and announcement in January about whether he’ll seek a second term as mayor in the 2021 municipal election.
