Outgoing Blair City Council member Brad Andersen was honored for his service to the city during his final council meeting Tuesday night.

Mayor Rich Hansen presented a plaque to Andersen and he received a standing ovation.

“Presented to Brad Andersen in recognition and appreciation for his dedication and leadership as a member of the Blair City Council,” Hansen read.

Andersen, who did not seek re-election, served two terms on the council, beginning in 2012. He served on the Blair Planning Commission for six years before joining the council.

Andersen was replaced by Andrew Schank, who won the seat in Ward 2 over Robert Pearson in the November election.
