Name and history

Ohio Township was organized in 1804.[4] It was named after the Ohio River, which forms its eastern and southern borders.[5] Statewide, other Ohio Townships are located in Clermont and Monroe counties.

Government

The township is governed by a three-member board of trustees, who are elected in November of odd-numbered years to a four-year term beginning on the following January 1. Two are elected in the year after the presidential election and one is elected in the year before it. There is also an elected township fiscal officer,[6] who serves a four-year term beginning on April 1 of the year after the election, which is held in November of the year before the presidential election. Vacancies in the fiscal officership or on the board of trustees are filled by the remaining trustees.
