Fiscal Officer / Finance |
|
Since 1951, Township Fiscal Officers have been elected every four years at the general election held in November in odd-numbered years, with the Fiscal Officer's term beginning on April 1st of the year following election.
The Township Fiscal Officer is legally designated to handle township financial matters, and works in close conjunction with the Township Trustees.
In larger townships, such as Plain Township, Finance Departments are credited.
The Township Fiscal Officer then assumes the role of auditor, leaving to the Finance Director the tasks of record keeping.
The Finance Department, under the direction of the Fiscal Officer, is responsible for keeping accurate records of the proceedings of the Trustees' meetings, all other records, budgets, accounts and transactions, investments, employee information, benefits, payrolls, polling places within the township for elections, certifications of lighting districts, and records of the Township cemetery.
The Fiscal Officer and Finance Director work closely with the offices of the Stark County Auditor, Stark County Recorder, Stark County Treasurer, and Stark County Board of Elections in addition to the Auditor of the State of Ohio.
The Plain Township Fiscal Officer and Finance Director annually complete the necessary continuing education conducted by the State Treasurer to be certified to invest Township funds.
