How are County Commissioners elected and how long can he/she serve in office?
County Commissioners are elected by the voters of Fayette County and serve 4 year terms. Commissioners in our county are not limited in the number of terms they can serve. The terms are staggered to eliminate the possibility that all five County Commissioners would be new in office at the same time. The three Commission District posts are filled by election at one time, and the two “at-large” posts are filled by election two years later, resulting in an election of County Commissioners every two years.
