Ohio Rev. Code § 6115.14
Upon taking the oath of office, the director or board of directors of a sanitary district shall select some suitable person as secretary. The secretary selected by the board may or may not be a member of the board. The secretary shall be the custodian of the records of the district and of its corporate seal and shall assist the board in such particulars as it directs in the performance of its duties. The secretary shall attest, under the corporate seal of the district, all certified copies of the official records and files of the district that are required of him by sections 6115.01 to 6115.79 of the Revised Code, or by any person ordering such copies and paying the reasonable cost of transcription. Any portion of a record so certified and attested prima facie imports verity. The secretary shall serve also as treasurer of the district, unless a treasurer is otherwise provided for by the board. The treasurer shall be the fiscal officer of the district.
The board may employ an executive director; a chief engineer who may be an individual, partnership, or corporation; an attorney; and such other engineers, attorneys, agents, and assistants as are needed, and may provide for their compensation, maintain, furnish, and equip offices, and purchase such office supplies, equipment, apparatus, appliances, instruments, and tools as are necessary, which, with all other necessary expenditures, shall be taken as a part of the cost of the improvement.
The employment of the executive director, secretary, treasurer, chief engineer, and attorney for the district shall be evidenced by agreements in writing, which, so far as possible, shall specify the amounts to be paid for their services.
The executive director shall perform such duties as may be prescribed by the board of directors, including the execution on behalf of the board of such contracts and agreements as may be authorized by resolution of the board, and may be the secretary of the board if the board appoints a treasurer who is not the secretary of the board.
The chief engineer shall be superintendent of all the works and improvements, and shall make a full report to the board and the executive director each year, or more often if required, and may make such suggestions and recommendations to the board as he deems proper.
