DUTIES OF THE COUNTY TREASURER
County treasurers in all of Ohio's 88 counties have traditionally served as the local tax collector. However, tighter budgets and increasing demands at the local level have changed the face of the position of county treasurer and increased expectations for this important occupation.
Today's treasurer serves as the county's chief investment officer, the administrator of sophisticated delinquent tax collection programs and the keeper of property tax escrow accounts. As a result, those that hold this position must be individuals who are highly trained in investment, cash management and financial planning strategies to properly manage and safeguard local funds.
- All first half real estate taxes are due to the Treasurer's Office no later February 19, 2026.
- All second half real estate taxes are due to the Treasurer's Office no later than July 16, 2026.
