Abstract:
Lake County is served by a Board of County Commissioners representing five districts in the County. Elected by the County at large, each serves a four-year term, in which the terms are staggered. The Board of County Commissioners is the legislative branch of County government. Individual Commissioners are both lawmaking officers and fiscal representatives of the County. The County Manager and County Attorney are appointed by the Commissioners to oversee daily operations, personnel and legal matters. Commissioner District Boundaries are redrawn soon after the Decennial Census Bureau population data is released. Current data was released for Lake County in late 2021.Last Reveiwed: 2/2/2022Last Updated: 2/2/2022
