Sec. 307.093. A board of county commissioners may enter into | 12 |
a sale and leaseback agreement under which the board agrees to | 13 |
convey a county-owned building to a purchaser who is obligated, | 14 |
immediately upon closing, to lease all or portions of the building | 15 |
back to the board. The sale and leaseback agreement shall obligate | 16 |
the lessor to make public improvements to all or portions of the | 17 |
building subject to the lease, including renovations, energy | 18 |
conservation measures, and other measures that are necessary to | 19 |
improve the functionality and reduce the operating costs of the | 20 |

Sec. 505.60. (A) As provided in this section and section | 32 |
505.601 of the Revised Code, the board of township trustees of any | 33 |
township may procure and pay all or any part of the cost of | 34 |
insurance policies that may provide benefits for hospitalization, | 35 |
surgical care, major medical care, disability, dental care, eye | 36 |
care, medical care, hearing aids, prescription drugs, or sickness | 37 |
and accident insurance, or a combination of any of the foregoing | 38 |
types of insurance for township officers and employees. The board | 39 |
of township trustees of any township may negotiate and contract | 40 |
for the purchase of a policy of long-term care insurance for | 41 |
township officers and employees pursuant to section 124.841 of the | 42 |
Revised Code. | 43 |
If the board procures any insurance policies under this | 44 |
section, the board shall provide uniform coverage under these | 45 |
policies for township officers and full-time township employees | 46 |
and their immediate dependents, and may provide coverage under | 47 |
these policies for part-time township employees and their | 48 |
immediate dependents, from the funds or budgets from which the | 49 |
officers or employees are compensated for services, such policies | 50 |
to be issued by an insurance company duly authorized to do | 51 |
business in this state. | 52 |
(B) The board may also provide coverage for any or all of the | 53 |
benefits described in division (A) of this section by entering | 54 |
into a contract for group health care services with health | 55 |
insuring corporations holding certificates of authority under | 56 |
Chapter 1751. of the Revised Code for township officers and | 57 |
employees and their immediate dependents. If the board so | 58 |
contracts, it shall provide uniform coverage under any such | 59 |
contracts for township officers and full-time township employees | 60 |
and their immediate dependents, from the funds or budgets from | 61 |
which the officers or employees are compensated for services, and | 62 |
may provide coverage under such contracts for part-time township | 63 |
employees and their immediate dependents, from the funds or | 64 |
budgets from which the officers or employees are compensated for | 65 |
services, provided that each officer and employee so covered is | 66 |
permitted to: | 67 |
(D) If any township officer or employee is denied coverage | 87 |
under a health care plan procured under this section or if any | 88 |
township officer or employee elects not to participate in the | 89 |
township's health care plan, the township may reimburse the | 90 |
officer or employee for each out-of-pocket premium attributable to | 91 |
the coverage provided for the officer or employee and their | 92 |
immediate dependents for insurance benefits described in division | 93 |
(A) of this section that the officer or employee otherwise | 94 |
obtains, but not to exceed an amount equal to the average premium | 95 |
paid by the township for its officers and employees under any | 96 |
health care plan it procures under this section. | 97 |
(F) If a board of township trustees fails to pay one or more | 106 |
premiums for a policy, contract, or plan of insurance or health | 107 |
care services authorized under this section and the failure causes | 108 |
a lapse, cancellation, or other termination of coverage under the | 109 |
policy, contract, or plan, it may reimburse a township officer or | 110 |
employee for, or pay on behalf of the officer or employee, any | 111 |
expenses incurred that would have been covered under the policy, | 112 |
contract, or plan. | 113 |
