Houston County, MN

The elected Commissioners who serve the County of Houston are a dedicated group who put serving the public above all else. "We are committed to providing exceptional citizen service at all times."

The administrative functions of Houston County are embodied in a Board of County Commissioners with each of the five members elected from a commissioner district within the county. The Board is in overall charge of the county's affairs, the county road system, county property and finances. The Board has the power to make appropriations for the needed expenditures of the county and to levy taxes.

The County Coordinator serves as the Clerk of the Board. Board meetings are generally held at 9:00 a.m. on the first, third, and fourth Tuesday of each month. The Board holds informal workgroup sessions on the second Tuesday of the month, generally at 9:00 a.m. in room 219 to discuss ongoing county projects, get staff updates, or focus on strategic planning.

The Commissioners presently elected to serve are:

While Commissioners, like other county officers, are elected to four-year terms, two districts elected Commissioners in 1998 (the second and fourth districts) and the other three districts elected Commissioners in 2000, so that the membership of the entire Board cannot be changed in one election.
