Pocomoke City Mayor Todd Nock has been sworn in as the 82nd President of the Maryland Municipal League (MML), becoming the youngest known leader in the organization’s history.
The milestone was celebrated during MML’s Annual Summer Conference in Ocean City. Representing 157 municipalities and two special taxing districts, MML advocates for local governments across the state.
Mayor Nock, who has led Pocomoke since 2023, unveiled a “Back to the Future” theme for his presidency, focused on mentoring young leaders and amplifying the voices of small towns.
In his speech, Nock shared a personal story of seeing his 10-year-old self in a local yearbook: “Go back,” he said, recounting the moment. “Go back into your community, serve your people, and be the person you needed when you were growing up.”
He also thanked outgoing MML President Michael O’Connor, Mayor of Frederick, and welcomed Bladensburg Mayor Takisha James as President-Elect.
