First member of an underrepresented equity group to do an otherwise non-notable thing" is not a notability freebie — had he been able to claim that he was the first African-American mayor in the ''entire United States'', then we'd have something, but if all he can claim is that he was the first African-American mayor of his own small town, then that really doesn't get him anywhere in and of itself if he can't pass  the normal way. Rather, he has to clear our notability bar for smalltown mayors exactly the same way as any other smalltown mayor: by being able to show a depth and range and volume of sourcing that marks him out as much ''more'' special than most other smalltown mayors. But that's not what's on offer here: we have two |primary sources (his "meet your mayor" profile on the municipal government's own self-published website and a government directory) that aren't support for notability at all, and just five hits of local coverage in contexts like the election campaign, scrapping a local garbage tax and serving on a local political committee, that are not notability clinchers if they're the best you can do
