Per ORC §5705.27, the Hamilton County Budget Commission consists of the county auditor, the county treasurer, and the prosecuting attorney. It is the responsibility of the Commission to annually review the tax budgets of the political subdivisions within the county. This includes the county, townships, municipalities, and special districts. The county auditor prepares tax revenue estimates for all levies. These estimates are then presented to the Budget Commission. The Commission verifies that all tax levies are properly authorized and allocated to local governments. The Commission approves the Official and Amended Certificates of the local governments, as well as the distribution of the Local Government Fund.
