Boehmler looking to future of Hampton

Brook Boehmler held a victory press conference the day after being elected mayor of Hampton, an election where he defeated former mayor Diane Weldin by a hefty margin of 322 votes and out-gained her in each of Hampton's  four wards and on absentee ballots.

     During his speech at City Hall, Boehmler outlined his goals for improving the city and also handed out checks of $4,000 each to three local entities he claims are critical to the success of Hampton's future.

     "I want to thank you guys so much for the opportunity to serve this community," Boehmler said. "I want to thank everyone for their support. I want to thank the other candidate. Without candidates, we don't have choices, without choices, we don't have a government."

            "I believe in this community," Boehmler added, before introducing current Hampton Mayor Shawn Dietz, whom Boehmler is replacing. "Shawn, I want to tell you, you've brought a whole new fresh light and inspired a lot of people, a lot of younger people in our community."
