Bill > HB248

This bill revises various provisions related to the Auditor of State's duties and responsibilities across multiple areas of Ohio state government. The bill makes numerous technical changes to existing law, including removing references to the Auditor of State in certain contexts and updating various administrative procedures. Key provisions include modifying requirements for government audits, financial reporting, and continuing education for local government officials like county recorders, auditors, and township fiscal officers. The bill repeals several existing sections of the Revised Code related to these areas, effectively streamlining and updating administrative processes. The changes appear to reduce some of the Auditor of State's direct oversight responsibilities while maintaining core audit and compliance functions. The bill affects a wide range of government entities, including school districts, health boards, transit authorities, and local government offices, making technical adjustments to how financial reporting, auditing, and administrative procedures are conducted.
