Flagstaff County Council is comprised of a representative from each of the County’s seven divisions. The Reeve and Deputy Reeve are elected by the members of Council annually at the Organizational Meeting. As governed by the Municipal Government Act, a municipal election is held every four years. Drawing upon their unique experiences and diverse backgrounds, Flagstaff County Council members work together as a unit to provide the direction and outcomes that will best serve the interests of the municipality as a whole.
