Fulton County approves payment to Center for Child and Family Advocacy under ORC §3113.35
Summary
The board authorized release of second-half 2025 marriage license and divorce-fee proceeds to the Center for Child and Family Advocacy (House of Ruth) in Napoleon under Ohio Revised Code §3113.35; vote was 2-0.
Fulton County commissioners on Jan. 15 approved Resolution 2026-034 to release second-half 2025 marriage license, dissolution and divorce filing fees to the Center for Child and Family Advocacy (the "House of Ruth") in Napoleon. The payment follows the agency's earlier qualification under ORC §3113.35 and a prior county resolution approving them as a recipient for the year 2025. Commissioner Joe Short moved the resolution and Commissioner Jeff Rupp seconded; the vote was recorded as 2-0 with Commissioner Jon Rupp absent.
The resolution references the agency's application and the county's prior acceptance (Resolution 2024-689) and directs the county to disburse the funds collected for Fulton County residents who are victims of domestic violence. No dollar amount for the payout is listed in the transcript; the resolution instructs county staff to release the recorded fees for the second half of 2025.
