Ohio Rev. Code § 5153.06: Employment contract with executive director.

The county children services board may enter into a written contract with the board's executive director specifying terms and conditions of the executive director's employment. The executive director shall not be in the classified civil service. The period of the contract shall not exceed three years. Such a contract shall in no way abridge the right of the county children services board to terminate the employment of the executive director as an unclassified employee at will, but may specify terms and conditions for any such termination.
