The TOWNSHIP FISCAL OFFICER is an elected official and is independent of the township trustees; yet by law, he or she must work closely with the trustees. The trustees have the legislative authority in the township, and the Fiscal Officer must keep an accurate record of all township accounts and transactions. It is the responsibility of the Fiscal Officer to comply strictly with the legal requirements set for the position’s duties, to establish and practice rules for efficient management of the office, and to follow good accounting practices in maintaining records and accounts.
The Ohio Revised Code states several required duties of the Fiscal Officer including, but not limited to:
- keeping an accurate record of the proceedings of Allen Township Board Trustee meetings
- keeping accurate records of all the accounts and transactions of the township trustees
- issuing all checks
- preparing payroll
Each year the Fiscal Officer must prepare an estimate of the revenues and expenditures for the next succeeding year and submit it to the county auditor. Once this is done, a resolution is passed by the trustees that formally adopts the budget as revised and approved by the County Auditor.
