§ 703.375.
(A) During the transition period, the dissolved village's public records shall be handled
as follows: (1) The receiver-trustee shall evaluate the dissolved village's records retention schedule
to determine if it is viable for future responses to public records requests. If it is viable, the receiver-trustee shall follow the schedule in responding to
requests. If it is not viable, the receiver-trustee, with assistance from the county records
commission of the county wherein a majority of the village territory was located,
shall create a records retention schedule applicable to the dissolved village's records. (2) Requests for the dissolved village's public records shall be submitted to the receiver-trustee. The receiver-trustee shall respond to those requests in accordance with section 149.43 of the Revised Code . If the receiver-trustee transferred records under division (B) of this section before
receiving a request, the receiver-trustee shall notify the requestor that the records
may be available via request to the entity or township to which the records were transferred. (B) Within the first ninety days after the date the dissolution is effective, the receiver-trustee,
with assistance from the county records commission of the county wherein a majority
of the village territory was located, shall review the records of the dissolved village. The review shall determine which records may be disposed of, which records are related
to utility services and shall be transferred to the entity assuming the management
of the utility service, and which records shall be transferred to the township or
townships into which the dissolved village dissolved. If necessary, the receiver-trustee and commission may seek the assistance of an
entity or township for this purpose. (C) Beginning on the date the transition period is over, the township or townships to
which the records of the dissolved village were transferred under this section are
responsible for responding to requests for those records.
