Humphreys was elected to the Putnam City school board in 1987 and served until 1995. In 1998, he was elected mayor of Oklahoma City and served two terms. As mayor, he changed the popular opinion of the downtown rivitalization effort, known as Metropolitan Area Projects or MAPS, to a more favorable view. This resulted in increased economic development and improved quality of living in the downtown Oklahoma City area and a move toward a second project, known as MAPS for Kids, aimed at a revitalization of the area's public schools.
