Boards and Committees

Lincoln County relies on many citizen volunteers who serve on various boards and committees. The nature of local government centers on providing meaningful access and participation in the operation of the affairs of the county. In the spirit of public participation in our local government, Lincoln County operates under a uniform Board Appointment Policy. The public is encouraged to watch for board vacancy announcements in the local newspaper legal sections. The application to serve on a county board is linked for your convenience.
