County Board Members and Information
The Board of Commissioners is composed of five members each representing a geographic district of the County. They are elected to four-year staggered terms.
The Kanabec County Board of Commissioners officially meets on first and third Tuesdays of each month with the following exceptions in 2023: Wednesday, July 5th and Thursday, December 7th. Meetings are held in the County Board Room, on the ground floor of the Kanabec County Courthouse in Mora, Minnesota, unless otherwise noted.
Each Board member also serves on other committees in specialized areas such as library, corrections, regional development and other advisory boards. Board members invest considerable time following up on a wide variety of constituent concerns.
All meetings of the full Board (regular, special, emergency and adjourned) are open to the public.
