Status: in_force

May 31, 2010 Senate Bill 131 - 128th General Assembly (A) Except as provided in divisions (G) and (H) of this section, when purchasing equipment, material, or supplies, the department of administrative services, other state agencies, and state institutions of higher education shall purchase biobased products in accordance with the biobased product preference program established by the director of administrative services under this section. (B) Not later than one hundred eighty days after the effective date of this section, the director shall establish a biobased product preference program, which shall ensure that the department of administrative services, other state agencies, and state institutions of higher education purchase biobased products by giving a preference to those designated items that are composed of the highest percentage of biobased content practicable or that comply with regulations adopted under 42 U.S.C. 6914b-1 by the administrator of the United States environmental protection agency. The purchase of biobased products under the program shall be consistent with sections 125.01 to 125.11 of the Revised Code. As part of the program, the director shall adopt a policy of setting minimum biobased content specifications for awarding contracts in a manner that ensures that the biobased content of biobased products is consistent with the guidelines issued under 7 U.S.C. 8102, except when the director determines that division (C)(1), (2), or (3) of this section applies. (C) The director may determine that it is not possible for a biobased product to be purchased in accordance with the biobased product preference program if the director determines that any of the following applies to the product: (1) The product is not available within a reasonable period of time. (2) The product fails to meet the performance standards set forth in the applicable specifications for the product. (3) The price of the product is an unreasonable price. As used in division (C)(3) of this section, "unreasonable price" means either of the following: (a) The price of the biobased product exceeds the price of a substantially equivalent nonbiobased product. (b) The price of the biobased product exceeds the fair market value of a substantially equivalent nonbiobased product. In accordance with rules adopted under this section, the director may determine a percentage that is up to five per cent by which the price of a biobased product may exceed the price or fair market value of a substantially equivalent nonbiobased product without being considered an unreasonable price for the purpose of division (C)(3)(a) or (b) of this section, as applicable. In doing so, the director shall give consideration to the benefits of expanding the use of biobased products. (D) For any biobased product offered under the biobased product preference program, a vendor shall certify that the product meets the biobased content requirements for the designated item of which the product is an exemplar. Upon request, a vendor shall provide to the director information to verify the biobased content of a biobased product qualifying for purchase in accordance with the program. (E) The director shall adopt rules in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code that prescribe all of the following: (1) The procedures the department of administrative services and other state agencies shall use to give preference to and purchase biobased products in accordance with the program; (2) The purchasing policy the director adopts under division (B) of this section; (3) Procedures and guidelines to be used by the director in determining percentages for purposes of division (C) of this section; (4) Other requirements or procedures that are necessary to implement the biobased product preference program. (F) The director shall maintain a list of products that qualify as designated items under the biobased product preference program. (G) When purchasing equipment, material, or supplies, a state institution of higher education shall purchase designated items in accordance with procedures established by the institution. (H) If, after assessing the functions of designated items, a state agency determines that none of the designated items are functionally capable of meeting a specific need of the agency, the agency shall notify the director of administrative services. If, after assessing the functions of designated items, a state institution of higher education determines that none of the designated items are functionally capable of meeting a specific need of the institution, the institution shall notify both the director of administrative services and the chancellor of the board of regents. The agency or institution then may purchase a nonbiobased product that is functionally capable of meeting that specific need of the agency or institution, as applicable. Such a purchase does not constitute failure to comply with the biobased product preference program or preclude the agency or institution from otherwise participating in the program. (I) This section does not apply to the purchase of motor vehicle fuel, heating oil, or electricity. (J) As used in this section, "state institution of higher education" has the same meaning as in section 3345.011 of the Revised Code. Last updated October 21, 2025 at 2:20 PM

(B) After the general election in each even-numbered year, the clerk of the senate, with the assistance of the department of administrative services, shall estimate the cost of the medical insurance premiums that will be necessary to provide coverage, on the same basis as for a similarly situated state employee, for each person who is elected to a term as senator at such election, or appointed to fill the unexpired portion of any such term, and any of the senator's dependents qualified for coverage at the time the senator assumes office. Using this estimate, the clerk shall determine a fixed amount to be paid by the state in equal monthly installments on behalf of the senator each year of the senator's term as a medical insurance premium, but in no event in an amount to exceed the total premium required in any month by the contract of the state by the carrier. Any amount not paid in such a case shall be placed in reserve and applied against any subsequent month's premium up to the full amount thereof until the entire amount has been paid along with the original estimate for each month. This fixed amount shall be such that, as nearly as can be predicted, the sum of the monthly premiums paid for the senator during the senator's term shall equal the total amount of medical insurance premiums that will be paid for such an employee, as required by section 124.82 of the Revised Code, during that term.

Using this estimate, the chief administrative officer shall determine a fixed amount to be paid by the state in equal monthly installments on behalf of the representative each year of the representative's term as a medical insurance premium, but in no event in an amount to exceed the total premium required in any month by the contract of the state with the carrier. Any amount not paid in such a case shall be placed in reserve and applied against any subsequent month's premium up to the full amount thereof until the entire reserve has been paid along with the original estimate for each month. This fixed amount shall be such that, as nearly as can be predicted, the sum of the monthly premiums paid for the representative during the representative's term shall equal the total amount of medical insurance premiums that will be paid for such an employee, as required by section 124.82 of the Revised Code, during that term. The representative shall pay the difference between the amount so fixed and the total premium required by the contract of the state with the carrier.

(B)(1) Upon the filing of a complaint under division (A) of this section or upon its own initiative, the commission may establish an organized crime task force to investigate organized criminal activity in a single county or in two or more counties if it determines, based upon the complaint filed and the information relative to it or based upon any information that it may have received, that there is reason to believe that organized criminal activity has occurred and continues to occur in that county or in each of those counties. The commission shall not establish an organized crime task force to investigate organized criminal activity in any single county unless it makes the determination required under this division relative to that county and shall not establish an organized crime task force to investigate organized criminal activity in two or more counties unless it makes the determination required under this division relative to each of those counties. The commission, at any time, may terminate an organized crime task force it has established under this section.

(E) Except as provided in this division, upon the establishment of a task force, the commission shall provide the prosecuting attorney of each of the counties served by the task force with written notice that the task force has been established to investigate organized criminal activity in that county. Such notice shall not be provided to a prosecuting attorney if it appears to the commission, based upon the complaint filed and any information relative to it or based upon any information that the commission may have received, that there is reason to believe that the office of that prosecuting attorney is implicated in the organized criminal activity to be investigated.

A consolidated securities issue shall contain a summary statement of purposes encompassing the purposes stated in the separate legislation, and shall have maturities or principal payments consistent with the aggregate of the separate periodic maturities or principal payments if such maturities or payments are provided in the separate legislation. If the periodic maturities or principal payments are not provided in the separate legislation, a consolidated securities issue shall have maturities or principal payments as provided in the legislation authorizing the consolidated issue, consistent with the aggregate of the separate periodic maturities or principal payments determined in accordance with this chapter.

(C) As used in this division (C), "bid" means bid or proposal. If to be sold by competitive bid on the best bid advertisement for bids shall be in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where the securities are issued, or in a financial journal, or by distribution of a request for bids, or otherwise, in the manner and at the time or times determined by the taxing authority or by an officer of the subdivision authorized by the taxing authority to make that determination, and as provided in this division (C). A copy of the advertisement shall be provided at least ten days before the day for receipt of bids to the Ohio municipal advisory council, provided that failure to do so shall not affect the validity of the sale or of the securities. (1) Any advertisement for competitive bids shall state all of the following pertaining to the securities: (a) The total or maximum principal amount; (b) The amount or amounts, and date or dates, of principal payments, or how and by whom they shall be determined, including any mandatory sinking fund requirements, and any provisions for call or redemption prior to maturity, including any mandatory sinking fund redemption requirements; (c) The maximum rate or rates of interest if any, any other limitations on interest or interest rates or the manner of determining the interest rate or rates, and any maximum permitted discount; (d) The dates of payment of interest; (e) The general purpose or purposes and the source or sources of payment; (f) The day, hour, and place, which place need not be in the subdivision, for receipt of bids, and the manner in which bids may be presented; (g) The basis on which the best bid will be determined, including, with respect to interest cost, the basis for determining interest cost if other than net interest cost determined by computing the interest payable to the stated maturity date or dates, plus any discount or minus any premium bid; (h) The bid security, if any, as determined by the taxing authority, to be submitted with or otherwise provided or evidenced in connection with a bid; (i) Any other information, or terms of sale determined or confirmed by the taxing authority or by its authorized officer, pertinent to the sale.

Every bidder shall submit or otherwise provide or evidence in connection with its bid any bid security in the form and amount specified in the advertisement or request. Any bid security of the best bidder shall be retained or not released pending delivery of the securities to the best bidder. After the award of the securities to the best bidder, the subdivision shall return or release any bid security of other bidders. (3) The taxing authority may itself by legislation, or by the officer expressly authorized by and subject to any maximum or maximum average interest rate or rates stated in legislation, accept a bid, or the best bid determined in the manner prescribed by the taxing authority or advertisement, that is presented by a responsible bidder. The taxing authority or authorized officer may determine to reject any or all bids received and to waive any informality, irregularity, or defect.

(3) Except as provided in division (B)(4) of this section, the action shall be commenced in the court of common pleas of the county in which the issuer, or in the case of division (A)(2) securities, the obligor, is located in whole or in part or has its or a principal office. The tax commissioner and the county auditor of the county in which the action is commenced shall be named as party defendants. Service of summons shall, unless waived, be made upon such parties in the manner provided for service of summons by the Rules of Civil Procedure. The property owners, taxpayers, and citizens of the issuer, or in the case of division (A)(2) securities, the obligor, nonresident owners of property subject to taxation or special assessment for payment of debt charges on the securities by the issuer or obligor, and all other persons affected by or interested in the issuance of the securities, shall be deemed joined as defendants without service to the same extent as if individually named in the complaint.

The tax commissioner shall be named as party defendant, and the taxpayers, property owners, and citizens of the state, nonresident owners of property subject to taxation or special assessment for payment of debt charges on the securities by the issuer or obligor, and all other persons affected by or interested in the issuance of the securities, shall be deemed joined as defendants without service to the same extent as if individually named in the complaint.

No more than one copy of the complaint and order need be served upon any one prosecuting attorney. Each such attorney shall carefully examine the complaint and if it appears, or there is reason to believe, that the complaint is defective, insufficient, or untrue, or if in the opinion of the attorney the issuance of the securities or, if the case, the entering into of the public obligation, is not lawful or they have not been duly authorized, the attorney may enter an appearance for the county, or the state in the case of the attorney general, and assert any defense to the complaint that the attorney considers proper. The attorney may enter an appearance and assert any support for the complaint that the attorney considers proper. (G) The clerk of the court in which the action is commenced shall cause a copy of the order to be published once a week for two consecutive calendar weeks, in a newspaper of general circulation in that county and in each other county the prosecuting attorney of which is required to be served under division (F) of this section. The first publication in each county shall be made not less than fourteen nor more than twenty-one days prior to the date set for hearing. Upon the last publication of the order, service upon all property owners, taxpayers, citizens, or others having or claiming any right, title, or interest in or against the plaintiff or property subject to taxation or special assessment for payment of debt charges on the securities or otherwise affected by or interested in the issuance or entering into of the securities described in the complaint is complete, and the court has jurisdiction of them to the same extent as if such defendants were individually named in the complaint and personally served. (H) The attorneys referred to in division (F) of this section, and any other person made a defendant or his counsel, shall, subject to laws restricting public access to certain records, have reasonable access to all records and proceedings of the issuer and, if division (A)(2) securities are involved, the obligor, which pertain to the matters described in the complaint. Any officer, agent, or employee of the issuer, and in the case of division (A)(2) securities the obligor, who has charge, possession, custody, or control of any of those records and proceedings shall, on request of that person, make available for examination those records and proceedings and shall furnish such authenticated copies of them as the person requests and at that person's expense. (I) Upon motion of the issuer, whether before or after the date set for hearing as provided in division (E) of this section, the court may enjoin any person from commencing any other action or proceeding contesting the same or related matters as described in the complaint, as the complaint may from time to time be amended. The court may order a joint hearing or trial before it of all such related issues then pending in any action or proceeding in any court in the state, and may order any such action or proceeding consolidated with the validation complaint pending before it, and may make such order as may be necessary or proper to effect that consolidation and as may tend to avoid unnecessary costs or delays or multiplicity of suits. That order is not appealable. (J) Any property owner, taxpayer, citizen, or person affected by or interested in the issuance or entering into of the securities may become a named party to the action by pleading to the complaint at or before the time set for the hearing provided in division (E) of this section, or thereafter by intervention upon leave of court. (K) At the time designated in the order for hearing, the court shall proceed to hear and determine all questions of law and fact in the action and may make such interlocutory orders and adjournments as will enable it properly to try and determine the action and to render a final judgment with the least possible delay. (L) Any party to the action may appeal from a final judgment of a court of common pleas under division (K) of this section to the court of appeals. The notice of appeal must be filed within ten days of the entry of final judgment by the court of common pleas. The appeal shall take priority over all other civil cases therein pending, except habeas corpus. No oral argument shall be permitted on appeal except at the request of the court on its own motion. (M) All of the following apply to a final judgment of the court of common pleas, as finally affirmed or modified in any appeal, that determines that the issuer has authority to issue the securities upon the general terms set forth in the complaint for validation and that adjudicates the legality of all proceedings taken and proposed to be taken in connection with the securities and any underlying public obligation: (1) The final judgment is forever binding and conclusive, as to all matters adjudicated, against the issuer, any obligor, and all other parties to the action, and those in privity with them, whether named in the action or included in the description in the notice provided for in division (E) of this section. (2) If all procedural steps required to be taken for the completion of the authorization, issuance, sale, and delivery of the securities, and for entering into any underlying public obligation, after the date of the final judgment, are properly taken in accordance with the applicable provisions of law and the terms of the final judgment, the final judgment constitutes a permanent injunction against any person's contesting, by any action or proceeding, any of the following: (a) The validity of the securities and of any underlying public obligation generally described in the complaint; (b) The validity of the taxes, special assessments, tolls, charges, rates, or other levies, or lease payments, or payments by an obligor, authorized, contracted, or covenanted to be imposed, made, or collected for the payment of the debt charges on the securities or of payment obligations under the public obligation; (c) The validity of any pledge of or lien on revenue or property to secure the payment of the debt charges or payment obligations on the securities. (3) A final judgment does not permanently enjoin any person not a named party to the action from raising a claim or defense seeking relief in whole or in part from any levy of taxes or special assessments, made or to be made or collected or to be collected against property owned by that person, authorized for the payment of any debt charges or payment obligations on the securities described in the complaint if the claim or defense is based upon a right that such person may have only in his individual capacity as an owner of the property subject to the tax or special assessment, including but not limited to any rights under sections 727.02 , 727.15 , 727.16 , and 727.17 of the Revised Code. (N) The costs of each action under this section shall be paid by the plaintiff and may be paid from the proceeds of the securities, except that if a taxpayer, citizen, or other person has contested, intervened in, or appealed the action the court may tax the whole or such part of the costs against that person as is equitable and just.

(2) Notwithstanding any residential prevailing rate of wages established prior to July 1, 1995, if, by October 1, 1995, the parties are unable to agree under division (A)(1) of this section as to the rate of wages payable for each occupation covered by sections 4115.03 to 4115.16 of the Revised Code, the director of commerce shall establish the rate of wages payable for each occupation. (3) The residential prevailing rate of wages established under division (A)(1) or (2) of this section shall not be equal to or greater than the prevailing rate of wages determined by the director pursuant to sections 4115.03 to 4115.16 of the Revised Code for any of the occupations covered by those sections.

(C) The residential prevailing rate of wages established under division (A) of this section is not payable to any individual or member of that individual's family who provides labor in exchange for acquisition of the property for homeownership or who provides labor in place of or as a supplement to any rental payments for the property. (D) For the purposes of this section: (1) "Project" means any construction, rehabilitation, remodeling, or improvement of residential housing, whether on a single or multiple site for which a person, as defined in section 1.59 of the Revised Code, or municipal corporation, county, or township receives financing, that is financed in whole or in part from state moneys or pursuant to this chapter, section 133.51 or 307.698 of the Revised Code, or Chapter 174. or 175. of the Revised Code, except for any of the following: (a) The single-family mortgage revenue bonds homeownership program under Chapter 175. of the Revised Code, including owner-occupied dwellings of one to four units; (b) Projects consisting of fewer than six units developed by any entity that is not a nonprofit organization exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; (c) Projects of fewer than twenty-five units developed by any nonprofit organization that is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code; (d) Programs undertaken by any municipal corporation, county, or township, including lease-purchase programs, using mortgage revenue bond financing; (e) Any individual project, that is sponsored or developed by a nonprofit organization that is exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, for which the federal government or any of its agencies furnishes by loan, grant, low-income housing tax credit, or insurance more than twelve per cent of the costs of the project.

Nothing in division (D)(1)(e) of this section shall be construed as permitting unrelated projects to be combined for the sole purpose of determining the total percentage of project costs furnished by the federal government or any of its agencies. (2) A "project" is a "public improvement" and the state or a political subdivision that undertakes or participates in the financing of a project is a "public authority," as both of the last two terms are defined in section 4115.03 of the Revised Code.

The failure of one county office, board, or commission to meet payroll does not in itself constitute a fiscal emergency. (3) An increase, by action of the county budget commission pursuant to division (D) of section 5705.31 of the Revised Code, in the minimum levy of the municipal corporation, county, or township for the current or next fiscal year which results in a reduction in the minimum levies for one or more other subdivisions or taxing districts.

Accounts due and payable shall not include any account, or portion thereof, that is being contested in good faith. (5) The existence of a condition in which the aggregate of deficit amounts of all deficit funds at the end of its preceding fiscal year, less the total of any year-end balance in the general fund and in any special fund that may be transferred as provided in section 5705.14 of the Revised Code to meet such deficit, exceeded one-sixth of the total of the general fund budget for that year and the receipts to those deficit funds during that year other than from transfers from the general fund. (6) The existence of a condition in which, at the end of the preceding fiscal year, moneys and marketable investments in or held for the unsegregated treasury of the municipal corporation, county, or township, minus outstanding checks and warrants, were less in amount than the aggregate of the positive balances of the general fund and those special funds the purposes of which the unsegregated treasury is held to meet, and such deficiency exceeded one-sixth of the total amount received into the unsegregated treasury during the preceding fiscal year. (B) Any year-end condition described in division (A)(4), (5), or (6) of this section shall not constitute a fiscal emergency condition if the municipal corporation, county, or township clearly demonstrates to the satisfaction of the auditor of state prior to the time of the auditor of state's determination that such condition no longer exists at the time of the determination pursuant to section 118.04 of the Revised Code. For the purpose of such demonstration, there shall be taken into account all accounts payable past due for sixty days or subject to penalty, deficit amounts of deficit funds, and positive balances as at the time of such demonstration, rather than at the end of the fiscal year, and there shall be taken into account the moneys and marketable securities in the treasury of the municipal corporation, county, or township at the time of such demonstration that are, in the case of division (A)(4) of this section, held for the general fund and those respective special funds that are lawfully available to pay such accounts, in the case of division (A)(5) of this section, held for the general fund or any special fund that may be transferred as provided in section 5705.14 of the Revised Code to meet such deficit, and in the case of division (A)(6) of this section, held to meet such positive balances, but in each case, that are not encumbered or held for other than such respective purposes; provided that changes from the year end condition resulting from transfers not authorized pursuant to Chapter 5705. of the Revised Code, borrowings or advances between funds, segregation of treasury moneys or investments, and similar adjustments, shall not be taken into account to demonstrate improvement in any fiscal emergency condition. Unless the determination by the auditor of state occurs more than four months following the end of such fiscal year, upon the request by and substantial showing of the municipal corporation, county, or township that it has taken steps to remove such condition within four months, the auditor shall postpone a determination as to a condition under division (A)(4), (5), or (6) of this section as to which such substantial showing is made until the expiration of four months following the end of such fiscal year, but the auditor of state shall not postpone the determination as to division (A)(1), (2), or (3) of this section. (C) Neither the time periods nor the amounts used in division (A) of this section to determine what constitutes a fiscal emergency condition of a municipal corporation, county, or township for purposes of this chapter authorize actions otherwise contrary to law or any agreement of the municipal corporation, county, or township.

(C) Part-time employees shall be compensated on an hourly basis for time worked, at the rates shown in division (A) of this section or in section 124.152 of the Revised Code. (D) The salary and wage rates in division (A) of this section or in section 124.152 of the Revised Code represent base rates of compensation and may be augmented by the provisions of section 124.181 of the Revised Code. In those cases where lodging, meals, laundry, or other personal services are furnished an employee in the service of the state, the actual costs or fair market value of the personal services shall be paid by the employee in such amounts and manner as determined by the director of administrative services and approved by the director of budget and management, and those personal services shall not be considered as a part of the employee's compensation. An appointing authority that appoints employees in the service of the state, with the approval of the director of administrative services and the director of budget and management, may establish payments to employees for uniforms, tools, equipment, and other requirements of the department and payments for the maintenance of them. The director of administrative services may review collective bargaining agreements entered into under Chapter 4117. of the Revised Code that cover employees in the service of the state and determine whether certain benefits or payments provided to the employees covered by those agreements should also be provided to employees in the service of the state who are exempt from collective bargaining coverage and are paid in accordance with section 124.152 of the Revised Code or are listed in division (B)(2) or (4) of section 124.14 of the Revised Code. On completing the review, the director of administrative services, with the approval of the director of budget and management, may provide to some or all of these employees any payment or benefit, except for salary, contained in such a collective bargaining agreement even if it is similar to a payment or benefit already provided by law to some or all of these employees. Any payment or benefit so provided shall not exceed the highest level for that payment or benefit specified in such a collective bargaining agreement. The director of administrative services shall not provide, and the director of budget and management shall not approve, any payment or benefit to such an employee under this division unless the payment or benefit is provided pursuant to a collective bargaining agreement to a state employee who is in a position with similar duties as, is supervised by, or is employed by the same appointing authority as, the employee to whom the benefit or payment is to be provided. As used in this division, "payment or benefit already provided by law" includes, but is not limited to, bereavement, personal, vacation, administrative, and sick leave, disability benefits, holiday pay, and pay supplements provided under the Revised Code, but does not include wages or salary. (E) New employees paid in accordance with schedule B of division (A) of this section or schedule E-1 of section 124.152 of the Revised Code shall be employed at the minimum rate established for the range unless otherwise provided. Employees with qualifications that are beyond the minimum normally required for the position and that are determined by the director to be exceptional may be employed in, or may be transferred or promoted to, a position at an advanced step of the range. Further, in time of a serious labor market condition when it is relatively impossible to recruit employees at the minimum rate for a particular classification, the entrance rate may be set at an advanced step in the range by the director of administrative services. This rate may be limited to geographical regions of the state. Appointments made to an advanced step under the provision regarding exceptional qualifications shall not affect the step assignment of employees already serving. However, anytime the hiring rate of an entire classification is advanced to a higher step, all incumbents of that classification being paid at a step lower than that being used for hiring, shall be advanced beginning at the start of the first pay period thereafter to the new hiring rate, and any time accrued at the lower step will be used to calculate advancement to a succeeding step. If the hiring rate of a classification is increased for only a geographical region of the state, only incumbents who work in that geographical region shall be advanced to a higher step. When an employee in the unclassified service changes from one state position to another or is appointed to a position in the classified service, or if an employee in the classified service is appointed to a position in the unclassified service, the employee's salary or wage in the new position shall be determined in the same manner as if the employee were an employee in the classified service. When an employee in the unclassified service who is not eligible for step increases is appointed to a classification in the classified service under which step increases are provided, future step increases shall be based on the date on which the employee last received a pay increase. If the employee has not received an increase during the previous year, the date of the appointment to the classified service shall be used to determine the employee's annual step advancement eligibility date. In reassigning any employee to a classification resulting in a pay range increase or to a new pay range as a result of a promotion, an increase pay range adjustment, or other classification change resulting in a pay range increase, the director shall assign such employee to the step in the new pay range that will provide an increase of approximately four per cent if the new pay range can accommodate the increase. When an employee is being assigned to a classification or new pay range as the result of a class plan change, if the employee has completed a probationary period, the employee shall be placed in a step no lower than step two of the new pay range. If the employee has not completed a probationary period, the employee may be placed in step one of the new pay range. Such new salary or wage shall become effective on such date as the director determines. (F) If employment conditions and the urgency of the work require such action, the director of administrative services may, upon the application of a department head, authorize payment at any rate established within the range for the class of work, for work of a casual or intermittent nature or on a project basis. Payment at such rates shall not be made to the same individual for more than three calendar months in any one calendar year. Any such action shall be subject to the approval of the director of budget and management as to the availability of funds. This section and sections 124.14 and 124.152 of the Revised Code do not repeal any authority of any department or public official to contract with or fix the compensation of professional persons who may be employed temporarily for work of a casual nature or for work on a project basis. (G)(1) Except as provided in divisions (G)(2) and (3) of this section, each state employee paid in accordance with schedule B of this section or schedule E-1 of section 124.152 of the Revised Code shall be eligible for advancement to succeeding steps in the range for the employee's class or grade according to the schedule established in this division. Beginning on the first day of the pay period within which the employee completes the prescribed probationary period in the employee's classification with the state, each employee shall receive an automatic salary adjustment equivalent to the next higher step within the pay range for the employee's class or grade. Except as provided in divisions (G)(2) and (3) of this section, each employee paid in accordance with schedule E-1 of section 124.152 of the Revised Code shall be eligible to advance to the next higher step until the employee reaches the top step in the range for the employee's class or grade, if the employee has maintained satisfactory performance in accordance with criteria established by the employee's appointing authority. Those step advancements shall not occur more frequently than once in any twelve-month period. When an employee is promoted, the step entry date shall be set to account for a probationary period. When an employee is reassigned to a higher pay range, the step entry date shall be set to allow an employee who is not at the highest step of the range to receive a step advancement one year from the reassignment date. Step advancement shall not be affected by demotion. A promoted employee shall advance to the next higher step of the pay range on the first day of the pay period in which the required probationary period is completed. Step advancement shall become effective at the beginning of the pay period within which the employee attains the necessary length of service. Time spent on authorized leave of absence shall be counted for this purpose. If determined to be in the best interest of the state service, the director of administrative services may, either statewide or in selected agencies, adjust the dates on which annual step advancements are received by employees paid in accordance with schedule E-1 of section 124.152 of the Revised Code. (2)(a) There shall be a moratorium on annual step advancements under division (G)(1) of this section beginning June 21, 2009, through June 20, 2011. Step advancements shall resume with the pay period beginning June 21, 2011. Upon the resumption of step advancements, there shall be no retroactive step advancements for the period the moratorium was in effect. The moratorium shall not affect an employee's performance evaluation schedule. An employee who begins a probationary period before June 21, 2009, shall advance to the next step in the employee's pay range at the end of probation, and then become subject to the moratorium. An employee who is hired, promoted, or reassigned to a higher pay range between June 21, 2009, through June 20, 2011, shall not advance to the next step in the employee's pay range until the next anniversary of the employee's date of hire, promotion, or reassignment that occurs on or after June 21, 2011. (b) The moratorium under division (G)(2)(a) of this section shall apply to the employees of the secretary of state, the auditor of state, the treasurer of state, and the attorney general, who are subject to this section unless the secretary of state, the auditor of state, the treasurer of state, or the attorney general decides to exempt the office's employees from the moratorium and so notifies the director of administrative services in writing on or before July 1, 2009. (3) Employees in intermittent positions shall be employed at the minimum rate established for the pay range for their classification and are not eligible for step advancements. (H) Employees in appointive managerial or professional positions paid in accordance with schedule C of this section or schedule E-2 of section 124.152 of the Revised Code may be appointed at any rate within the appropriate pay range. This rate of pay may be adjusted higher or lower within the respective pay range at any time the appointing authority so desires as long as the adjustment is based on the employee's ability to successfully administer those duties assigned to the employee. Salary adjustments shall not be made more frequently than once in any six-month period under this provision to incumbents holding the same position and classification. (I) When an employee is assigned to duty outside this state, the employee may be compensated, upon request of the department head and with the approval of the director of administrative services, at a rate not to exceed fifty per cent in excess of the employee's current base rate for the period of time spent on that duty. (J) Unless compensation for members of a board or commission is otherwise specifically provided by law, the director of administrative services shall establish the rate and method of payment for members of boards and commissions pursuant to the pay schedules listed in section 124.152 of the Revised Code. (K) Regular full-time employees in positions assigned to classes within the instruction and education administration series under the job classification plans of the director of administrative services, except certificated employees on the instructional staff of Ohio deaf and blind education services, whose positions are scheduled to work on the basis of an academic year rather than a full calendar year, shall be paid according to the pay range assigned by the applicable job classification plan, but only during those pay periods included in the academic year of the school where the employee is located. (1) Part-time or substitute teachers or those whose period of employment is other than the full academic year shall be compensated for the actual time worked at the rate established by this section. (2) Employees governed by this division are exempt from sections 124.13 and 124.19 of the Revised Code. (3) Length of service for the purpose of determining eligibility for step advancements as provided by division (G) of this section and for the purpose of determining eligibility for longevity pay supplements as provided by division (E) of section 124.181 of the Revised Code shall be computed on the basis of one full year of service for the completion of each academic year. (L) The superintendent of Ohio deaf and blind education services shall, subject to the approval of the director of education and workforce, carry out both of the following: (1) Annually, between the first day of April and the last day of June, establish for the ensuing fiscal year a schedule of hourly rates for the compensation of each certificated employee on the instructional staff of Ohio deaf and blind education services constructed as follows: (a) Determine for each level of training, experience, and other professional qualification for which an hourly rate is set forth in the current schedule, the per cent that rate is of the rate set forth in such schedule for a teacher with a bachelor's degree and no experience. If there is more than one such rate for such a teacher, the lowest rate shall be used to make the computation. (b) Determine which six city, local, and exempted village school districts with territory in Franklin county have in effect on, or have adopted by, the first day of April for the school year that begins on the ensuing first day of July, teacher salary schedules with the highest minimum salaries for a teacher with a bachelor's degree and no experience; (c) Divide the sum of such six highest minimum salaries by ten thousand five hundred sixty; (d) Multiply each per cent determined in division (L)(1)(a) of this section by the quotient obtained in division (L)(1)(c) of this section; (e) One hundred five per cent of each product thus obtained shall be the hourly rate for the corresponding level of training, experience, or other professional qualification in the schedule for the ensuing fiscal year. (2) Annually, assign each certificated employee on the instructional staff of Ohio deaf and blind education services to an hourly rate on the schedule that is commensurate with the employee's training, experience, and other professional qualifications. If an employee is employed on the basis of an academic year, the employee's annual salary shall be calculated by multiplying the employee's assigned hourly rate times one thousand seven hundred sixty. If an employee is not employed on the basis of an academic year, the employee's annual salary shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula: (a) Multiply the number of days the employee is required to work pursuant to the employee's contract by eight; (b) Multiply the product of division (L)(2)(a) of this section by the employee's assigned hourly rate. Each employee shall be paid an annual salary in biweekly installments. The amount of each installment shall be calculated by dividing the employee's annual salary by the number of biweekly installments to be paid during the year. Sections 124.13 and 124.19 of the Revised Code do not apply to an employee who is paid under this division. As used in this division, "academic year" means the number of days in each school year that the state school for the deaf and the state school for the blind are required to be open for instruction with pupils in attendance. Upon completing an academic year, an employee paid under this division shall be deemed to have completed one year of service. An employee paid under this division is eligible to receive a pay supplement under division (L)(1), (2), or (3) of section 124.181 of the Revised Code for which the employee qualifies, but is not eligible to receive a pay supplement under division (L)(4) or (5) of that section. An employee paid under this division is eligible to receive a pay supplement under division (L)(6) of section 124.181 of the Revised Code for which the employee qualifies, except that the supplement is not limited to a maximum of five per cent of the employee's regular base salary in a calendar year. (M) Division (A) of this section does not apply to "exempt employees," as defined in section 124.152 of the Revised Code, who are paid under that section. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, when an employee transfers between bargaining units or transfers out of or into a bargaining unit, the director of administrative services shall establish the employee's compensation and adjust the maximum leave accrual schedule as the director deems equitable.
