The Muskegon County Commissioners kicked off their 2025 organizational meeting with a significant leadership transition, as Commissioner Nash was sworn in as the new chairman. The ceremony included a formal oath, where Nash pledged to faithfully discharge his duties to the best of his ability.

Following the swearing-in, the focus shifted to the election of the vice chair. Commissioner Cook was nominated for the position, receiving support from fellow commissioners. However, Commissioner Sewell also entered the race with a nomination of his own. After a brief period for additional nominations, the commissioners moved to close the nomination process, setting the stage for a vote on the vice chair position.

This meeting marks a pivotal moment for the Muskegon County Commissioners as they establish their leadership for the year ahead, with Nash and the new vice chair expected to guide the county through important decisions and initiatives in 2025.
