County Government

Boulder County is divided into three individual districts each represented by a commissioner elected county-wide. The three commissioners comprise the county Board of Commissioners and represent the county as a whole. Each commissioner must reside in their respective district and may be elected to a maximum of two four-year terms. The current commissioners are Ben Pearlman (vice-chair), Will Toor, and Cindy Domenico (chair).

The Board of County Commissioners are full-time public servants and as such approve the budget for the entire County government. The Board also oversees the management of 10 County departments and the daily operations of the county, work that is done by a county manager or a chief administrative officer in some counties.

In addition to the commissioners Boulder County has seven other county-wide elected officials including the District Attorney, who represents the 20th Judicial District.
