Commissioner McMillan nominates Susan Holmes and Franklin County commissioners approve her for District 5 seat
Summary
After Commissioner Spike Hosh resigned for moving out of the district, Commissioner McMillan nominated Susan Holmes to fill the unexpired District 5 seat; the board closed nominations, held a roll call and approved her appointment.
The Franklin County Board of Commissioners on March 26, 2026, appointed Susan Holmes to fill the unexpired term for District 5, Seat B, after Commissioner Spike Hosh resigned because he moved out of the district.
Commissioner McMillan opened the nomination, saying, “It’s my distinct honor and great privilege to nominate Missus Susan Holmes to fill the unexpired term of Commissioner Spike Hosh. If there’s anyone in Suwanee in District 5 who is more engaged in every aspect of community life, this woman is it. And I have absolutely no reservations in putting her name forward for this position.” The chair then called for any other nominations, closed the floor, and directed a roll-call vote. The transcript records that the motion carried and the chair welcomed Holmes to the board.
The appointment followed the board’s broader consent handling of several appointments and reappointments; the meeting’s transcript does not record contested debate or opposing nominations for the District 5 seat. The transcript does not provide the roll-call tally by commissioner for this vote; it only records the motion, closure of nominations and that the motion carried.
The nominee’s term length and any next required filing or certification were not specified in the provided transcript; the county clerk’s office will complete administrative processing of the appointment.
