Board of County Commissioners
Taylor County is governed by the Taylor County Board of County Commissioners. Taylor County is divided into five districts. One County Commissioner is elected from each district. Each Commissioner serves a four-year term. Commissioners are chosen in a partisan election by voters from the district in which the commission candidate lives As the governing body of the County, the Board of County Commissioners performs legislative, budgetary, and policy-making functions and advocates for citizens at all levels of government.
The Florida Statutes establish the specific duties and powers of the Board of County Commissioners. Exercising their legislative powers, the County Commission adopts ordinances (local laws) and resolutions to establish policies and programs and to provide public services and facilities primarily for the unincorporated areas of the county. The County Commission considers major problems facing the county government and guides the growth and development of the county in a manner that is consistent with the public interest.
