Village Board
The Village of Merrillan is governed
by a Village Board. The Board makes decisions regarding
most Village matters, including the Village budget,
capital improvements, ordinances and hiring of employees.
The
Board consists of a Village President and six trustees
and is non-partisan. Trustees are elected at-large,
rather than by district. Elections are held every year
on the first Tuesday in April. Each board member is
elected to overlapping two-year terms, with the Village
President and three trustees elected one year, and the
other three trustees elected the following year.
