Barbour County Commission
Boards and Authorities

Boards and Authorities are designed to give citizens a voice in their government and provide a means of influencing decisions that shape the quality of life for residents. Participation on a Board or Authority is one of the most effective steps citizens can take in having an active voice in their government.

We are always seeking residents interested in serving on county boards and authorities. Some are actively seeking new members now, or in other cases you could be placed on a reserve list for future vacancies. Please use the submission form below to submit your information.
