During his tenure as mayor, Martin was instrumental in advocating for a new 1-percent sales tax that was used to fund the construction of a new civic center, public safety building, and recreational facilities.[1] Additionally, Columbus won the bid to host the 1996 Olympic softball competition under Martin's leadership.[2] He served as mayor from 1991 to 1994.[3][1]
