DURHAM, N.C. — Durham Mayor Bill Bell wants an unprecedented fourth term in office.

Bell announced Tuesday that he plans to seek re-election. The mayor said he wants to expand revitalization in the inner city neighbors.

To bring home the point, Bell made his announcement at the newly redeveloped Eastway Avenue Community.

Thomas Stith, a two-term member of the Durham City Council, is also running for the office. Stith ran for lieutenant governor in 2004.
