Reports
6.1
Health Commissioner University
The law office of Clemans, Nelson & Associates, Inc. gave a presentation and included information about city health departments under the Ohio Revised Code 124.40, a city health department is under the jurisdiction of the municipal Civil Service Commission.
On a side note, from another city health department that I spoke with, all of their positions are hired under their municpal Civil Service Commission, and their health commissioner is a classified position as well.
Some departments contract with Clemans, Nelson & Associates, having them on retainer monthly. I am currently requesting a quote on this for our department to see if we may be able to afford this in the next budget.
