Jones County Board of Supervisors

The county board is the executive branch of county government. The supervisors serve as the policymakers for the county and administer the various county programs. Their powers include reviewing budget requests, appropriating funds, establishing county tax levies, enacting ordinances, filling employee vacancies and hearing reports from county officers. The board is also responsible for overseeing economic development in the county. Boards of Supervisors responsibilities are defined by Iowa Code chapter 331. 

 

Boards of Supervisors may consist of either three or five members. Jones County's five supervisors are elected at large, but with equal population district residence requirements for the members. This is also known as Plan 2, under Iowa Code section 331.206. The district lines are re-assessed after each federal decennial census  is taken, and redrawn as needed to meet the equal population district size required by law.

 

Be sure to view all the pages on our county web site for information about other county offices.


The Jones County Board of Supervisors meet each Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. in the Board Room on the main floor of the Jones County Courthouse. Additional meetings are scheduled as needed.
To reserve a time on the Board's agenda, please contact the Jones County Auditor's Office at 319 462-2282, or auditor@co.jones.ia.us by 2:00 p.m. on the Friday preceeding the meeting.
All agendas are posted in the main lobby of the Courthouse, sent to various local news agencies, and posted on this web-site at least 24 hours in advance of the meeting. All meetings of the Board of Supervisors are governed by the Iowa Open Meetings laws.
