Isle of Wight County is governed by the Board of Supervisors, an elected body of five members representing each of the County’s five election districts: Carrsville, Hardy, Newport, Smithfield and Windsor. The Board determines all policies and ordinances that govern the County and appropriates funds for County programs through an annual budget. The Supervisors are elected to four-year terms that are staggered at two-year intervals. The Board elects its Chairman and Vice-Chairman each year at its organizational meeting in January.
