A county commission (or a board of county commissioners) is a group of elected officials (county commissioners) collectively charged with administering the county government in some states of the United States; such commissions usually comprise three to five members. In some counties within Georgia, however, a sole commissioner holds the authority of the commission. Various counties nationwide have explored expanding from three members to five.

dbo:abstract A county commission (or a board of county commissioners) is a group of elected officials (county commissioners) collectively charged with administering the county government in some states of the United States; such commissions usually comprise three to five members. In some counties within Georgia, however, a sole commissioner holds the authority of the commission. In parts of the United States, alternative terms such as County Board of Supervisors or County Council may be used in lieu of, but generally synonymous to, a County Commission. However, in some jurisdictions there may be distinct differences between a County Commission and other similarly titled bodies. For example, a County Council may differ from a County Commission by containing more members or by having a Council-Manager form of government. In Indiana, every county, except Marion, which is consolidated with Indianapolis, has both a County Commission and a County Council, with the County Commission having administrative authority and the County Council being responsible for fiscal matters. Each commission acts as the executive of the local government, levying local taxes, administering county governmental services such as correctional institutions, courts, public health oversight, property registration, building code enforcement, and public works (e.g. road maintenance). The system has been supplanted in large part, as disparate sparsely-settled regions become urbanized and establish tighter local governmental control, usually in municipalities, though in many of the more rural states, the county commission retains more control, and even in some urbanized areas, may be responsible for significant government services. Various counties nationwide have explored expanding from three members to five. (en) Una commissione di contea (o un consiglio dei commissari di contea) è il gruppo di funzionari eletti incaricati collettivamente di provvedere all'amministrazione di una contea in alcuni stati degli Stati Uniti. Tali commissioni di solito sono composte da tre a cinque membri., anche se in alcune contee della Georgia un commissario unico detiene l'autorità dell'intera commissione. In alcune parti degli Stati Uniti, termini alternativi come County Board of Supervisors o County Council possono essere utilizzati al posto di County Commission, ma sono da intendersi sostanialmente come sinonimi. Tuttavia, in alcune giurisdizioni potrebbero esserci delle differenze tra una commissione di contea e altri organi con titoli simili. Ad esempio, un consiglio di contea può differire da una commissione di contea per il fatto di contenere più membri o per avere una forma di governo tipica del consiglio di amministrazione. Nello stato dell'Indiana, le contee hanno sia una commissione di contea sia un consiglio di contea, con la seguente divisione dei compiti: la commissione di contea detiene l'autorità amministrativa mentre il consiglio di contea è responsabile sulle questioni fiscali. Ogni commissione agisce come potere esecutivo nell'ambito del governo locale. È pertanto responsabile della riscossione delle tasse locali, dell'amministrazione dei servizi di contea (fra i quali gli istituti di correzione e i tribunali), della supervisione della salute pubblica, della registrazione degli atti di proprietà e dell'applicazione del codice edilizio e dei lavori pubblici (ad es. manutenzione stradale). Il sistema è stato in gran parte soppiantato, poiché regioni un tempo scarsamente abitate si sono urbanizzate, preferendo trasferire i poteri ai comuni. I poteri amministrativi della commissione di contea rimangono forti principalmente negli degli stati a prevalenza rurale, ma persino in alcune aree urbanizzate, questa può essere responsabile di importanti funzioni amministrative.
