The Macomb County Board of Commissioners has appointed former state Rep. Ken Goike as its new District 1 commissioner.

Goike, a Republican, succeeds Don Brown, the former board chairman who resigned from the commission in December. Brown moved to Macomb County Public Works Commissioner Candice Miller’s office, where he is serving as the deputy public works commissioner/government relations.

Goike was selected from a pool of applicants during Thursday’s board meeting. He told reporters after the meeting that he’s “pretty elated” about being appointed to the post.

“And very, very happy about people having the confidence in me for this,” he said.

Goike was elected to the state House of Representatives in 2010 and served until the end of 2016. After his time as a lawmaker, he worked for Miller’s public works office. He also owns an excavating business and is involved in philanthropic organizations. He said infrastructure is a specialty of his.
