Advisory groups play a critical role in Polk County Government. Some were created by state law; others by the BOCC as advisors in specific areas. Residents are encouraged to participate by expressing a desire to be appointed to these groups or making recommendations for appointments. To express interest in joining a committee please see the following Boards & Councils.

The County Commission meets twice a month on Wednesdays in the boardroom of the County Administration Building in Bartow. Other meetings are listed in the "Announcements" portion of the Commission agenda. Florida's "Government in the Sunshine" law requires that all county government business takes place in public meetings and that the public be given adequate notice of such meetings.
