Hamm, who spent the last 11 years on the Moore city council, will be the city鈥檚 first new mayor in 30 years, replacing longtime mayor Glenn Lewis, who did not run for reelection this year.

On Feb. 13, voters selected Hamm over Jeff Arvin in the mayoral contest.

Hamm, who had run unopposed for his recent city council elections, said he enjoyed being on the campaign trail for this race, 鈥渒nocking on doors and meeting residents. It was wonderful to get back out there and talk to the people.鈥�

鈥淚鈥檝e always been interested in politics,鈥� Hamm said, but not at the national level. 鈥淚鈥檝e found that it鈥檚 your municipal government that most impacts your everyday life.鈥�

Before joining the 爆料TV Campus Police force, Hamm spent nearly 18 years as a deputy sheriff with the Cleveland County Sheriff鈥檚 Office.

鈥淢y life is one of public service,鈥� he said. 鈥淚鈥檝e found joy in getting to serve and help other people.鈥�

But running for public office 鈥渋sn鈥檛 about me,鈥� Hamm said. 鈥淚t has to be about the city, and what doing what is best for the city of Moore.鈥�

Since his election, Hamm has been meeting with community leaders, asking them what the city can do to help them be successful. 鈥淲e鈥檙e not in competition with each other,鈥� he said. 鈥淲e want to work together to make our community the best that it can be.鈥�

Next up, Hamm and the city council will go on a planning retreat, he said, to discuss what the citizens want and 鈥渕ake sure we鈥檙e all on the same page. We have a great city council, and they all care about the city. We are looking forward to continuing to make Moore a great place to live and to do great things in our community.鈥�

Infrastructure is one issue that will need attention, Hamm said. 鈥淲e need to have good roads; we need to have good infrastructure for our water delivery system.鈥�

Hamm has been a member of the Moore community for all of his life. 鈥淚 live in that community. I鈥檓 a part of that community,鈥� he said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 just my home, and I love it and have a passion for it. To get an opportunity to serve as the mayor of my hometown is just an honor, something I鈥檓 thrilled to get to do.鈥�
