WP:NACTOR and
WP:POLITICIAN. Being a one-term mayor and a council member of a city with a population of 23K doesn't satisfy the latter, and his acting credits are too sparse and minor to meet the former.

Mild keep with improvements. There are twelve members or former members of the
Bangor, Maine City Council with Wikipedia article. The fact that this person is local would not matter if there is extended local coverage of his life.

Comment. Even "extended local coverage", which is not sufficient IMO, is not listed in the article.

Comment Billy, you repeatedly bring up this tired argument. First of all, please take the time to read
WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Secondly, all but one of individuals you mention that were members of Bangor City Council went on to become congressmen, governor, or some other higher office. OhNoitsJamieTalk 15:38, 12 February 2015 (UTC)reply

WP:POLITICIAN on many levels: small-city councilman; "mayor" is meaningless since "The Mayor is appointed every year, on a rotating basis, by a majority vote of the Council" per the city website; he is not on the current council
[1] so he must have served only one term or a partial term (he was elected to the council in a special election). Fails
WP:ACTOR because he had only a few small roles in movies. (This may have been a paid article; the infobox listed two websites, which I have deleted; one was a nonexistent site in his name and the other was the site of a PR firm). --
