She will be challenging incumbent Commissioner Tom Grossmann of Mason. Grossmann was elected as a county commissioner in 2014 and pulled petitions on June 29 to seek a third four-year term. He previously served for 12 years as a member of Mason City Council and his wife, Kathy, is a Mason council member.
After Brewer received a number of recognitions for her service to the city, she said her love for the community and for Warren County guided her to announce her intentions to run for the county commission seat.

“I pulled petitions two days ago because I want to serve again,” Brewer said. “Politics has been a big part of my life. This is my next venture and we’ll see how it goes. I hope to get your support. I’m humbled to serve.”
Last week, Brewer said that she had not made any decisions about seeking public office again. However, she said she thought it over and has been encouraged by others to run for elective office again.
Brewer is the longest serving council member and mayor in the city’s history, according to city officials. She is retired from Lebanon City Schools.
