§ 6133.07.

(A)(1) The county auditor and county treasurer of the lead county are the fiscal agents

of all the counties interested in the proposed improvement. (2) The clerk of the joint board shall present bills for payment to the fiscal agents

in the same manner as a request for payment would be made with respect to a single

county drainage improvement. (3) The fiscal agents shall process and pay each bill for the joint board of county commissioners

presented. (B) The auditor of the lead county shall certify to the auditor of the other counties

a schedule of the assessments to be levied for the cost of locating and constructing

the improvement and the auditor of such other county shall place such assessment upon

the duplicates.  The assessments so certified for collection to an auditor of another county shall

be a lien on the land within such county from the date such certificate is received

by the auditor of such other county. (C) The treasurer of each county shall proceed to collect the assessments pursuant to

the orders made in the proceedings for a joint drainage improvement, and shall pay

the assessments to the treasurer of the lead county. (D) The auditor and the treasurer of the lead county shall receive and account for such

funds in the same manner as they receive and account for assessments collected for

single county improvements and with their bonders shall be liable on their official

bonds for any misappropriation of such funds. (E) All warrants for the payment of costs of location and for costs of construction of

a joint county improvement shall be drawn by the auditor of the lead county on the

treasurer of the lead county, payable out of the general drainage improvement fund

of the lead county. (F) If a petition for a joint drainage improvement is dismissed after the costs and expenses

have been incurred in making the lead county engineer's reports and schedules provided

for in section 6133.08 of the Revised Code , such costs shall be paid by the several counties respectively, as the joint board

of county commissioners deems just and equitable.  All assessments when collected in all the counties and any amount which another

county should pay shall be paid into the treasury of the lead county and credited

to the general drainage improvement fund of the lead county.
