During this time McCoy also worked as the Marion County Deputy Coroner from 2009 to 2011, when he was then appointed by the Governor to fill the coroners vacancy. He served in the role of Coroner through 2016. McCoy began transitioning from the public sector to the private sector in 2014 when he became a conductor for BNSF Railway. he's now a Division Trainmaster for BNSF Railway, overseeing logistics and supervising around 100 employees across a broad region.

In his inaugural months in office, Mayor McCoy emphasized unifying the community and fostering collaborative, transparent governance. He redefined the mayor's role by choosing not to vote on day-to-day council matters-allowing council members to better represent their constituents-while retaining the vote only in tie situations as provided by city charter. Among his early priorities were addressing public safety funding inequities, advancing infrastructure projects, and developing a clear strategic roadmap for the city's future. Recently, Mayor McCoy further demonstrated his civic engagement by officially declaring Hannibal a Purple Heart City, honoring the sacrifice of military veterans.
