Trustees:
The Board of Trustees is the legislative authority in the township and also fulfills many executive responsibilities. The Board has the responsibility to maintain township roads, cemeteries and parks, and provide for safety services as residents deem necessary. While many responsibilities are required, the Ohio Revised Code also specifies that townships may, if they desire, provide a large number of other services.
Fiscal Officer:
The Fiscal Officer is elected to oversee and safeguard the township funds and work with the trustees to see monies are spent wisely and in the best interest of the residents. Fiscal Officers are also the keeper of all the township records.
