§ 3709.052.
When a majority of the members of the legislative authority or a majority of the electors
of each city constituting a city health district have voted affirmatively, the chief
executives of the cities affected shall enter into a contract for the administration
of public health affairs in the combined district. Such contract shall state the proportion of expenses of the board of health or health
department of the combined district to be paid by each city. Unless the proposal establishing the district as contained in the petition and submitted
to the electors provides for the board of health of the new district, the contract
may provide that the administration of the combined district be taken over by either
the board of health or the health department of one of the cities or by a combined
board of health. If the contract provides for a combined board of health, the number of members of
the board, their terms of office, and the method of appointment, shall be set forth
in the contract. The contract shall designate the city in which the central office of the board of
health shall be located. The city treasurer of such city shall be the custodian of the health funds of the
combined district. The auditor of such city shall act as the auditor of the combined district and shall
pay the expenses of the health program as approved by the board of health and signed
by the health commissioner. A copy of such contract shall be filed with the director of health. The service status of any person employed by a city health district shall not be affected
by the creation of a combined district.
