Tim Holland for St. Matthews City Council

Chances are you’ve crossed paths with Tim Holland. The father of four has spent a decade coaching for St. Matthews Little League, serves as assistant athletic director at Our Lady of Lourdes, is in his third term as a St. Matthews city councilman and can often be found running around town preparing for marathons. If that’s not enough, Holland is also a realtor with more than 15 years of experience.

With children ranging in age from six to 14, the Hollands have their hands full, and Tim strives to provide a positive example for his kids. That commitment to hard work encouraged him to run for the St. Matthews City Council a third time after losing his previous two races. His dedication led to a win in his third campaign, and he received the most votes in his next race two years later.

Tim currently serves as a St. Matthews city council member and has served since 2014; he is in his third term. Before winning his seat, he ran twice unsuccessfully for the St. Matthews City Council.
