After alluding to it in his State of the City message last month, Dunkirk Mayor Wilfred Rosas today announced his intention to seek re-election during an appearance on WDOE's Viewpoint program. In making the announcement to run for a second term, Rosas says he gave it a lot of thought before reaching a decision.  He also conferred with his family before deciding to run for another four-year term...

The retired State trooper began his political career when he was appointed Councilman at Large following the resignation of Stephanie Kayak in 2014. Rosas became the first Hispanic elected mayor in New York State in 2016.
