About Us
The County Treasurers Association of Ohio was established in 1924 to provide county treasurers a forum to exchange experiences and ideas with other county treasurers in Ohio. The Association’s goals are:
- to promote and protect the interest of taxpayers
- to encourage the enactment of legislation for the benefit of all Ohio residents
- to provide professional education for its members
- to share solutions through networking
The clipping above is from the 1903 Dayton Daily News, announcing Montgomery County Treasurer Charles Anderton joining the CTAO Executive Committee prior to CTAO "officially" becoming an association in 1924. Thank you to current Montgomery County Treasurer John McManus for providing this historic gem!
Membership
Our Association is comprised of all duly elected or appointed county treasurers throughout Ohio, as well as officers in charter counties whose responsibilities align with the constitutional duties of county treasurers.
Participation & Voting Rights
Every member has the right to participate in Association meetings and speak when recognized by the President. During votes, each county receives one vote, which must be cast by the county treasurer or, in their absence, by a designated office employee who presents written proxy authorization before the vote.
Member Directory
We maintain current records for all members, including contact information and office start dates. This directory is shared with the full membership annually to facilitate communication and collaboration across Ohio's counties and is available on our website.
Conferences
The CTAO hosts two conference a year to provide continuing education credits to our members. The Spring Conference is typically held in May, and the Fall Conference is held in November. Visit our Conference website.
