UAACOG Board Meetings

Local Leadership

The Upper Arkansas Area Council of Governments (UAACOG) Board of Directors is made up of local elected representatives from the four primary counties it serves. Each county commission board sends one representative to the UAACOG board, and one official from a municipality in each county also joins the board.

The composition of the UAACOG Board can change as local officials rotate due to elections or term constraints. Residents from the counties that UAACOG serves are invited to join board meetings. For details on schedules, times, and how meetings are conducted, please contact our office.
