Rhodes pushes civil service overhaul for Ohio Lottery
Senator Rhodes seeks to revamp the Ohio Lottery Commission by placing the director and staff under Civil Service to end political patronage. The bill, backed by Senators Massey and Johnson, would create a formal organization, require a Civil Service exam for the director, allow public meetings and open records, and grant hiring and firing authority to the director with Civil Service oversight.
