Governance and Organizational Structure
The District Advisory Council
| The District Advisory Council (DAC) is comprised of all 22 mayors of the villages and townships
of Cuyahoga County and the President of the Cuyahoga County Commissioners. The DAC is mandated
under section 3709.03 of the Ohio Revised Code to meet annually in March to authorize our contracts
with the cities we serve, review and approve our annual report and appoint members to our Board of
Health. |
The Board of Health
| The Board of Health members are appointed to 5 year staggered terms by the DAC. The Board is
comprised of five members, with one of those members appointed from the District Licensing Council,
which also provides a Board alternate. The Health Commissioner, who serves as Secretary to the
Board, is appointed by the Board, which also appoints the Medical Director. The Board of Health
meets monthly to review and approve all fiscal, legal, program and planning operations of the
department. |

The District Licensing Council
| The Cuyahoga County Health District Licensing Council (CCHDLC) was established under Ohio
Revised Code 3709.41(A), which applies to most local health districts. The goal of the CCHDLC
is to initiate, build and maintain a relationship between the regulated community and the CCBH.
This body also represents the regulated community in Board of Health deliberations by recommending
a member to sit on the Board. The CCHDLC reviews and comments on issues affecting the licensed
community at both the state and local level, improves the communication and linkages among the
public and private sector and identifies the needed changes in legislation, policy and practices.
CCBH community programs are provided by approximately 235 dedicated and professional staff. |
