County Board Committees, Commissions and Boards

Chippewa County has several committee-type organizations that serve county citizens.

  • County Board Standing Committees are comprised of elected county board supervisors as appointed by the county board chair.
  • Statutory Committees, Commissions and Boards are comprised of both county board supervisors and county citizens and are appointed by the county administrator.
  • Special Committees are appointed by the county board chair.

All committees, boards and commissions act as policy making bodies that determine the broad outlines and principles governing the administration of programs.
