In the council form of government,
all responsibility for policy making and administration of
county government is vested in the county council.
The council shall consist of not less than three nor more than
12 members. Although omitted from the state statute, the terms
of council members in this form, as in the other forms, shall be
two or four years as determined by the county council. This form
is unique in that there is no county executive. The council
retains executive and legislative power. However, it may
designate one of its members, such as the Chairman, to act in
its behalf and assign him additional administrative duties, or
it may designate some other appointive employee to act in such
capacity at the council's discretion.
