Delete the sourcing is not enough to justify an article for a local politician. Mayors are not default notable, we need high quality indepth coverage which is lacking here.

Delete. Mayors do not get an "inherent" notability freebie just because they exist — the notability test for mayors is the ability to write and source a substantive article about his political significance (specific things he did, specific projects he spearheaded, specific effects he had on the development of the city, and on and so forth), not just the ability to offer technical verification that he exists. But this article, as written, just documents that he exists and says nothing about him that would actually pass the bar.
