Harrison County Commission elects leadership for 2026, confirms meeting schedule
Summary
At its organizational meeting the Harrison County Commission elected Susan Thomas president and David Henkel president pro tem for 2026, confirmed regular meeting dates/times and approved courthouse hours and a minor holiday-time adjustment for Sept. 4.
The Harrison County Commission opened its organizational meeting and elected Susan Thomas as commission president and David Henkel as president pro tem for calendar year 2026. The votes were made by motion and carried by voice vote.
Commissioners confirmed the board’s regular meeting schedule — the first and third Wednesday of each month at 10:00 a.m. — and approved courthouse hours of operation as 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. The commission also agreed to a single holiday-time adjustment: on Sept. 4 the courthouse will close at 11:00 a.m. rather than noon to accommodate a local festival.
The actions were presented as routine organizational business at the start of the meeting. Commissioners asked no substantive follow-up questions on the schedule or hours. The items were approved by motions recorded on the agenda and carried without roll-call tallies being requested.
The commission moved on to other agenda items, including personnel matters, project requisitions and budget revisions later in the session.
