Commissioners District Map
Starting with the 2010 election, Carroll County voters have changed the way they select the Board of County Commissioners. A five-member, by-district board was approved by a 2004 referendum. Boundaries for the five districts were established by the 2008 Maryland General Assembly. Each voter can elect a single commissioner to represent his or her district. After the 2020 Census, there was a change in population in Carroll County and the Commissioners District Map boundaries were updated.
The Department of Human Resources assists the County Commissioners by overseeing all responsibilities associated with Carroll County Government employment including recruitment, selection, and hiring policies and procedures. Additionally, the Department administers benefits, compensation and recognition programs, employee relations programs, and training and development activities for County employees. The Department also manages the Personnel Services Division comprised of clerical support staff serving County agencies.
