12/9/2008

Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland has appointed Lucas County Auditor Anita Lopez to a commission on government reform charged with developing ways to save money and increase the efficiency of local government.

Ms. Lopez, who was elected county auditor in November, 2006, accepted a seat last month on the Ohio Commission on Local Government Reform and Collaboration, which was created last spring.

The commission is required to issue a report and recommendations to the Ohio legislature and the governor by July 1, 2010.
