Learn about the duties and responsibilities of County Council (http://www.allencounty.us/county-council) and what the difference is between County Council and County Commissioners (http://berrystreetbeacon.wordpress.com/2012/03/02/county-council-county-commissioners-wading-through-the-differnces/).

Treat candidates as if they were employees interviewing for a job because they are. The job is Allen County Council At-Large and you, Mr. and Ms. Taxpayer, are the employers. You pay for members of the Allen County Council to represent you, that’s the job description. For tips on how to select the best candidate, visit http://www.ehow.com/how_7310753_right-candidate-job.html. Be sure to contact candidates, ask questions and give them scenarios to see how they will perform on the job.
