Local politician and appointed public servant who fails WP:NPOL. The author's username suggests that this is an WP:AUTOBIO. The vast majority of references used are primary (mostly PDFs of local government records) and a search for further sourcing failed to turn up enough to establish WP:GNG.

Delete. Avondale AZ is not a global city for the purposes of extablishing the notability of its city councillors under WP:NPOL, so the inclusion tests he would have to meet are that either (a) he had another claim of notability for other reasons that would have already gotten him an article anyway, such as serving in the state legislature at another time in his career, or (b) he could be referenced so much better than most other city councillors (i.e. to nationalizing media coverage) that he had a credible claim to being special. But neither of these conditions are in evidence here at all, and the referencing depends far too heavily on primary sources that do not aid notability at all — although the tangential fact about Avondale's economic growth, referenced to CNN with the link title "Please create a screen name to access this feature", is amusing, it's not evidence of his notability as it isn't about him. Nothing here is "inherently" notable at all, and none of the sourcing is getting him over GNG for it. Bearcat (talk) 18:37, 17 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Per nom and per Bearcat. No material U.S. RS of which he was the subject. Fails WP:GNG. Britishfinance (talk) 16:27, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
