Waterloo’s first black mayor takes office tonight

January 4, 2016 By Radio Iowa Contributor

Waterloo welcome signQuentin Hart will be sworn in tonight as the first black mayor of Waterloo.

Hart will take office following a ceremony at 5:30 this evening along with two new city council members.

The 44-year-old Hart was first elected to serve on the council in 2007 and he was reelected in 2011.

Back in November, there was a five-way race for mayor that went to a run-off on December 1st. In the run-off, Hart beat former Mayor Tim Hurley to replace three-term Mayor Buck Clark.

Hart says he hopes to be known as a fair, hard-working mayor who leads the city in a positive direction.
