Welcome to Scioto Township,
Pickaway County, Ohio.
Scioto Township, established in 1810, is a political body that operates under
the powers
specifically delegated to us by the Ohio General Assembly.
The
Ohio Revised Code (ORC 503.01)grants specific kinds of authority
to the
1,300+ townships in Ohio. There are responsibilities that are required for townships
to
perform, while others are permitted
or prohibited. Scioto Township is governed
by three elected “Trustees” each serving four
year terms. A fourth elected
official, the Fiscal Officer, also serves a four year term and is
independent of the
Trustees, but is required by law to work closely with the
Trustees.
The Township
Trustees
are the legislative authority for Scioto Township while the Fiscal Officer’s
duties include the recording of township proceedings and recording the
finances for
the Township. Some of the township responsibilities to the residents include cemetery
management, fire and emergency medical services, road maintenance, and
zoning.
Throughout this website
you will find information about these responsibilities as well as
township
policies, forms, and applications to better serve the residents of Scioto
Township.
