There are seven elected officials in the Town of River Falls. They are:
- One Town Chairperson
- Four Town Supervisors
- One Town Clerk
- One Town Treasurer
The positions of Chair, Supervisors I and II, the Town Clerk, and the Town Treasurer are elected for two-year terms in spring elections of odd-numbered years. Supervisor positions III and IV are elected for two-year terms in spring elections of even-numbered years.
To run for any elected Town Office, you must be nominated at the annual Town Caucus. The Caucus is typically scheduled during the first three weeks in January. The nominating caucus also serves as the town's primary for town official elections. If more than two candidates are nominated for any town positions, the town caucus votes to send the two candidates with the most votes to the April election ballot. A candidate need not be present to be nominated at the nominating caucus; however a candidate that has been nominated must file a declaration of candidacy to be placed on the spring ballot. Nomination procedures must be followed precisely and on-time. You know you will be on the ballot when you receive a notice of nomination from the Town Clerk.
Contact the Town Clerk for instructions and more information about running for office in the Town.
