Similar to state and federal governments, counties have executive, legislative, and judicial functions. The county's legislative unit, known as the Board of County Commissioners, consists of county commissioners who check the actions of other branches of county government. Conducting orderly meetings requires adhering to parliamentary rules and rules of order, while also demonstrating common courtesy and cooperation. By the end of this course, you will be able to list the duties of the chair, clerk, and legal counsel of the legislative body, define the majority vote requirements for meetings, explain the differences between internal and statutory committees, and describe fundamental parliamentary procedures.
