Former city council member. I wasn't able to find any in-depth articles, though perhaps some existed in the late 1990s or early 2000s which are not showing up online. At least based on what I was able to find in my searching, appears to fail WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. ~ Rob₁₃^Talk 03:15, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Sacramento is not in the highly rarefied class of global cities that can hand their city councillors an automatic presumption of notability per WP:NPOL just for existing. It's certainly large enough that city councillors might still be eligible to have articles if they can be reliably sourced over the "who have received significant press coverage" part of our criteria for local officeholders, but that hasn't been shown here as there's only one actual reference besides her own self-published primary sources about herself. And no, neither being the first member of an underrepresented minority group to hold an otherwise non-notable office, nor being a non-winning candidate for election to the state legislature, automatically makes her a special case in the absence of enough press coverage to be deemed notable for her city council work itself.
