Still fails WP:NPOL as a local politician. While he has declared his intention to run for governor in 2022, this page should not be recreated unless he gains national coverage from non-local sources between now and then.

 * Keep Lopez is notable as he was the youngest mayor ever elected in Colorado history and served as a state director for the federal Small Business Administration. - Jon698 Talk 1:27 26 April 2020


 * Delete He was elected mayor at 28. That is not very young. Some places in the US have elected mayors at 18. The youngest x to do y is not a sign of notability. State heads of a federal organization like the SBA are not default notable. No real sign of notability.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:35, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. Parker CO is not a large enough city to confer "inherent" notability on its mayors just for existing as mayors, but neither unsuccessfully running as a candidate in a political party primary nor his age at the time of his election to the mayoralty make him more special than other mayors in and of themselves, and being director of a local chapter of a federal agency is not "inherently" notable either. The sourcing here, further, is not adequate to get him over the bar that he would actually have to clear: if you have to rely on blogs, alternative weekly newspapers and primary sources just to even get the sourcing into the double digits, because substantive coverage of his mayoralty in major media is relatively lacking, then you just haven't shown what's required to make a smalltown mayor notable.
