Delete. City councillors do not get an automatic presumption of notability just for existing. We grant that to city councillors in internationally prominent global cities on the order of New York City, Los Angeles or Berlin — but in any city outside that range, a city councillor qualifies for an article only if they can be reliably sourced to a depth and volume and geographic range of coverage that marks them out as significantly more notable than most other city councillors. But nothing here shows that at all. Bearcat (talk) 17:44, 31 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete even the mayor of Lansing is not notable, the level of office Spadafore holds even less so. Also, for what it is worth, all offices that Spadafore has held have involved non-partisan elections so leading with a statement of his party affiliation is highly questionable. Here in Michigan we are keen that all school district and city council positions are non-partisan.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:52, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
