Champaign County
Champaign County, Illinois is located in the heart of East Central Illinois. Home to the University of Illinois, Parkland College, and two major regional hospitals (Carle Foundation Hospital and OSF Heart of Mary Medical Center), Champaign County is a leader in education, health care, government, high technology, light industry and agriculture. Champaign County comprises 1008 square miles, the majority of which are involved in agriculture. Champaign County was organized in 1833 from part of Vermilion County. The County was named after Champaign County, Ohio, and the County Seat was named after Urbana, Ohio, which was the home place of State Senator John Vance, who sponsored the bill to create the County. The development of the County was furthered by the arrival of the Illinois Central Railroad and the establishment of a land-grant university. Champaign County was incorporated on February 20, 1833. Champaign County adopted the Township form of government in 1859. The County Board currently has 11 Districts, with two members representing each District for a total of 22 Board members. The County Board Chair is elected from the Board members. Champaign County also has an elected County Executive that functions as an administrator for County business.
