Commissioners Bob Proud, Scott Croswell and Ed Humphrey welcome you to vibrant and historic Clermont County, Ohio. Recognizing its continued growth prospects, Clermont County is actively working to ensure this community of 198,217 continues to be a great place to live, work, and raise a family.
The Board of County Commissioners prepares and administers the overall county budget, is the county's contracting authority, and develops and adopts policies for the administration of county services. The Commissioners implement laws and rules put forth by state agencies and the legislature.
Our number one priority continues to be economic development; this is critical in creating jobs for today and stabilizing our county for the future. These jobs directly translate into revenues for local businesses and government. We are proud of the combined local and state efforts that have resulted in new life for the old Ford transmission plant in Batavia; the University of Cincinnati is set to become the first tenant in the facility in fall 2010 resulting in more jobs and more opportunities for residents of this area to receive four-year degrees in careers that are steadily in demand.
Your Commissioners are committed to maintaining an open and transparent government. The Commissioners hold regular sessions at 1 p.m. on most Mondays and Wednesdays; regular sessions of the Board are held in the third floor session room of the Clermont County Administration Building, located at 101 E. Main Street in Batavia, Ohio. Check the front page of the county Web site http://www.clermontcountyohio.gov/ under Upcoming Meetings for monthly meeting schedules.
Commissioners are also holding a series of town meetings throughout the county in 2010. Citizens, schools, and government leaders are invited to attend to learn about programs and initiatives being considered locally and countywide. For town meeting dates, times, and locations click here.
In 2010, Commissioner Bob Proud is president of the Board. For additional information about the Board of Clermont County Commissioners, call (513) 732-7300.
