The financial powers of counties are
placed in the County Council, which serves as a check on
the Board of Commissioners. For election purposes the county
is divided into four districts, from each of which one council
member is elected. In addition, three council members are
elected from the county at large, making a total of seven.
All council members are elected to staggered,
four-year terms.
