Ohio Townships
|
Ohio
townships are considered political subdivisions of the State
of Ohio
and have only those powers granted by the state legislature
and perform
functions defined by the state. To keep up with the responsibilities
of the
changing times, the functions, duties and obligations of
the township have
changed over the years. Demands for increased or different
services have
prompted the state legislature to grant Ohio's 1,309 townships
the authority
to fulfill many of the changing demands.
Township administration in all Ohio townships is governed
by three trustees
and a fiscal officer, each elected for a four-year term.
Officially they fill their
offices on a part-time basis, but they are always ready
to meet their
responsibilities and put in many hours of work to serve
their constituents.
Their accessibility to the township residents and their
intimate knowledge
of their community, its needs, and its citizens enables
them to offer more
personal service than any other unit of government.
The Sagamore Hills Township Board of Trustees meets regularly
at the
Township Safety Center on the second Monday of each month
to conduct
Township government business. When the second Monday falls
on a
national holiday, the Township Board meeting is held on
the next Tuesday. All special meetings are advertised. There
is a Citizens' Forum on each
meeting agenda and the public is welcome to address the
Board at
meetings.
The major priority of the Sagamore Hills Township Trustees
and their staff
is to provide needed services while maintaining the quality
of life that the
township residents have come to enjoy. |
