New administrator picked for Marquette County

MARQUETTE, MI— Kip Belcher is Marquette County’s new administrator.

He was selected at a special meeting of the Marquette County Board of Commissioners this week by a 3-1 vote.

The board had originally selected Dennis Liimatta to replace retiring administrator Scott Erbisch in February. Liimatta was Marquette Township Supervisor before going to Grand Blanc Township to be that municipality’s supervisor over the past nine years.

Board Chair Joe Derocha said Liimatta withdrew from the position.

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
