Latest Legislation: House Bill 708 - 117th General Assembly
With respect to any contract for the purchase of equipment, materials, supplies, insurance, services, or a public improvement into which a township or its officers may enter, a board of township trustees by resolution, may adopt the model system of preferences for products mined or produced in Ohio and the United States and for Ohio-based contractors promulgated pursuant to division (E) of section 125.11 of the Revised Code. The resolution shall specify the class or classes of contracts to which the system of preferences apply, and once adopted, operates to modify the awarding of such contracts accordingly. While the system of preferences is in effect, no township officer or employee with the responsibility for doing so shall award a contract to which the system applies in violation of the preference system.
