January 6, 2016 |
Outgoing Mayor David Anderson was roundly
thanked for his service as Bonners Ferry's chief
elected official at last night's City Council
meeting.
During the public comment period at the
beginning of the meeting, where citizens usually
take a few moments to express their sentiments
about water issues or city fiscal policy, some
speakers took advantage of their alloted time to
publicly comment on the mayor.
"Mr. Mayor, I just want to voice my appreciation
for what you have done for the last eight
years," said Dave Gray as he stood to take his
time for public comment. "You're a good man, and
thank you for all you do."
Bob Graham, Boundary County Incident Commander
in the county's Emergency Management Department,
also stood during the comment period to make a
statement thanking the mayor. "You've done an
exemplary job. We very much appreciate
everything you've done, your leadership, and we
hope you stick around and help us out."
Vigorous applause broke out from those in
attendance at the meeting as each comment was
concluded.
"I'm keeping the same phone number, so you can
call me anytime," said Mayor Anderson.
David Anderson was first elected to serve as
Bonners Ferry mayor in 2007, and has completed
two terms in that position, serving for eight
years. |
