 You did not want to be? I did not want to be deputy mayor. It's just a really different role, and I'm not going to run for mayor in a couple years. I'm on my final leg. Strand made the comments while speaking on WDAY Midday. Strand was re-elected to serve as a city commissioner for his third term. He is still able to serve as mayor if he chooses to serve a fourth term, but seems to have decided against it.
