Board and Staff

Each community in Portage County is a critical partner in deciding how to use properties owned by the land bank. The board of directors of the land bank is composed of the Treasurer, two county Commissioners, and representatives of the townships and municipalities in the county. Working together, and in collaboration with the Auditor and other county offices, these governmental entities help to ensure the continued vitality of our entire community.
