Tran to Run for Council

Check out a little Fitchburg Pride web exclusive on Dean Tran running for re-election the City Council this fall, and not running for mayor.

It's no surprise Tran isn't running for mayor. He can't afford the $60,000 salary, and has said for months he didn't want to run. However, he wasn't sure about running for re-election, but pulled papers last week. Considering the frustration he has often felt as a councilor, it wasn't a slam dunk that he'd be back.
