The Board of County Commissioners welcomes you to Davison County. Commission Meetings are now held at our newly remodeled Davison County North Office Location; which is in the old Central Electric Building located at:
1420 North Main Street
Mitchell, SD 57301
The County Commission is the governing body of the county within the limits of the state law.
The Board is, among other duties, empowered to adopt ordinances, resolutions, establish programs, levy a tax not exceeding the amount authorized by law, appropriate funds, appoint certain officials, care, preserve and sell county-owned property, zone property and regulate development in the unincorporated area. In addition, members of the Board represent the county on intergovernmental agencies.
In Davison County five members of the board are elected to serve four year terms. Each is elected from one of the five districts of the county as a part-time position. Their terms are staggered based upon the District they represent; i.e., those representing even numbered districts are elected in the year of the Presidential Election and those representing odd numbered districts are elected in the year of the Governor Election unless a vacancy has occurred. District boundaries are adjusted after every federal census to equalize district population.
The chairperson is elected by the board members each year and presides at Board meetings and executes documents in the name of the county.
