Big Spring Mayor Tommy Duncan announced this morning he will not seek a second term in office.
Duncan cited personal reasons for why he will not stand for re-election.
“When I ran for office, I was really reluctant to do so, but I was contacted by several people to step forward and serve the community, and that's what I did,” Duncan said. “I never intended to serve more than one term.”
Duncan, who defeated incumbent mayor Russ McEwen in the 2010 municipal elections, cited three milestones as his major contributions to the community during his term in office.
The Big Spring Police Department reported the following activity:
• CHRISTOPHER SCOTT HOHERTZ, 38, Midland, was arrested on warrants for failure to maintain financial responsibility, failure to drive in a single lane and failure to appear.
• DONALD WILLAM BRYANT, 49, 447 Armstrong, was arrested on a charge of driving while license suspended/invalid.
• KIRSTEN TAHSAY LEWIS, 28, 1401 Lincoln, was arrested on warrants for speeding and failure to appear.
• AVEL ABREO RAMIREZ, 66, 1512 Wood, was arrested on a charge of public intoxication and a warrant from another agency.
