ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) - Gov.-elect Larry Hogan has named four more cabinet appointees.

Hogan announced Thursday that R. Michael Gill is his pick to be secretary of the Maryland Department of Business and Economic Development. Gill is chairman and principal of Evergreen Advisors, a mid-Atlantic investment bank.

David Craig is Hogan's choice to be the secretary of the Maryland Department of Planning. Craig, who has most recently served as county executive of Harford County, ran against Hogan for the Republican nomination for governor.

Kenneth Holt is Hogan's choice to be secretary of the Department of Housing and Community Development.

Former Democratic state Sen. Rona Kramer from Montgomery County was named to be secretary of the Maryland Department of Aging.

The nominees will require Senate confirmation.
