Bill Smith, Council President, Ward 1

Wife: Margaret
Children: Janiece (& Clark) Nelson

For almost 41 years, Monticello has been my home. This is a great community and a wonderful place to raise a family. The people are the best!

I've served on the City Council for 15 years, 6 years as Council President. As Council President, I serve on the Board of Public Works and Safety, a position I've had for 10 years under three different mayors. I serve as a Board member on the White County Council on Aging and the Northwest Indiana Solid Waste District.

I am proud of all the City projects in the works. Completing the North Main Street is a high priority for this council. We're all dedicated to seeing that project completed. I enjoy serving. I like helping people and helping the City of Monticello.
