Welcome to the new Hancock County Auditor Homepage.

This page has been modified as a result of your comments last year, which are always welcome. I hope you will find this page more organized and "user" friendly. This page encompasses a variety of services that the Auditor's Office provides to both residents and other governmental entities. My office is always here to assist you with any questions you may have.

It is my pleasure to serve as Auditor of Hancock County, Ohio. As Auditor I serve as the County's Chief Fiscal Officer, Chief Assessor, Chief Payroll Officer, and Sealer of Weights and Measures. As fiscal officer, the auditor is responsible for maintaining county financial records, issuing warrants (checks) for payment of county obligations and preparing the County's Annual Financial Report (CAFR). As assessor, the auditor determines property values for taxing purposes and transferring real property deeds. And, as sealer of weights and measures, the auditor tests and certifies the accuracy of various commercial measuring devices, such as gasoline pumps, to ensure consumer protection.
