Lambert Mims was public works commissioner and rotating mayor of Mobile from 1965 to 1985. During Mims' time as mayor/commissioner, the city of Mobile experienced the latter part of the modern civil rights movement, completed the Bayway, and unveiled the George C. Wallace Tunnel.

It witnessed the devastating destruction of hurricanes Camille and Frederic and saw the first oil well drilled in the bay. It witnessed the completion of the I-65 link across the Mobile-Tensaw Delta and celebrated the opening of the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway. When first elected, Mims was the youngest city commissioner in Mobile's history. Upon leaving office, Governor George Wallace appointed Mims as his ambassador to the Alabama Waterways Development Agency, a position he held from 1985 until March 1987, and one in which he promoted the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway.
