The County Council, Pulaski County’s fiscal-legislative body, is responsible for appropriating all funds for use by the County and its officers, fixing the rate of taxation for County purposes, fixing salaries of County employees, and adoption of the annual budget. The County Council meets on the second Monday of each month (Tuesday when a holiday falls on the Monday) in the meeting room on the second floor of the Courthouse, 112 East Main Street, Winamac, at 6:00 p.m. E.T. In even-numbered months, a joint session of the Council and the Board of Commissioners is held at 5:00 p.m. E.T., immediately prior to the Council’s meeting.
Four members of the Council must live in and be voted for by the residents of districts, and three at-large members may reside anywhere in Pulaski County and are voted for by all residents.
Specific information regarding County Council activities can be obtained from the Council Secretary at the Auditor’s Office, or by calling 574.946.3653, or from the Council president via email.
