Finance Department
Built-In Accountability Township Government is the most accountable form of government because it relies on property tax. For information on how property tax works, check here. |
The Finance Department, under the direction of the Fiscal Officer, is located in the Washington Township Government Center, 8200 McEwen Road. The Fiscal Officer is elected to a four-year term and the position is part-time. Tom Zobrist, the present Fiscal Officer, was elected in November 2003 to his first term beginning April 1, 2004. He was re-elected in November 2007 and started his second four-year term on April 1, 2008. See his profile under Elected Officials.
The day-to-day operations of the Finance Department are overseen by the Finance Director. There are five full-time employees: a Payroll Technician II, an Accounts Payable Technician II, an Accounting Supervisor, a Human Resources Technician III, and an Administrative Aide. There are also two part-time employees: a Payroll Assistant and a Human Resources Assistant.
