In many places, this position is called "County Commissioner." In Iowa, it's called County Supervisor. In Polk County, Iowa's largest county, there are 5 of us, each elected by district. I represent West Des Moines, Clive and the SW part of Des Moines. Our responsibility, by code, is the budget of our county. We set the tax rate. But, we also work with many other municipalities and counties in the areas of economic development, public health, social services and law enforcement, to name a few. In Polk County, the position of County Supervisor is full time. With almost 500,000 people in Polk County, there's plenty to do for all five of us.
