BOARDMAN, Ohio – Larry Moliterno, a Boardman Township trustee, has been elected to serve on the executive committee of the Coalition of Large Ohio Urban Townships.

Clout is a coalition of large, urban townships formed in 1994 to provide a forum for the exchange of problems, issues and solutions for similarly sized townships in the state, while also offering input to the Ohio Township Association. 

Membership in Clout requires a population of at least 15,000 residents in the unincorporated area of the township or a budget exceeding $3 million.

The executive committee consists of 16 members representing four regions of the state. Members are elected at the annual meeting held in conjunction with the Ohio Township Association’s winter conference. The executive committee meets four times annually and is responsible for establishing legislative priorities for each Ohio General Assembly. 

Clout members can also seek support in litigation matters through amicus curiae briefs, which are considered by OTA staff and the executive committee.

“Larry’s experience and commitment to responsible local government make him an excellent representative for Boardman and for large urban townships throughout Ohio,” said Brad Calhoun, Boardman Township fiscal officer. “His election to the Clout Executive Board reflects the respect he has earned among his peers across the state.”

Moliterno is also the president and CEO of Meridian HealthCare.
