Delete. Westfield MA is not large enough to hand all of its mayors a guaranteed inclusion freebie just because they exist. The actual notability bar for mayors, even in larger cities, is the ability to write and source a genuinely substantive article about their work in politics, not just the ability to find some information about their private personal lives and then supplement that with technical verification of their election or selection as mayor. But six of the eleven footnotes here are
primary sources that are not support for notability at all, and the five that are media coverage are all
routine local coverage of the type that every mayor of everywhere can always show, not enough in volume or depth or range to make him a special case over and above other mayors.
