Name and history

Named for Le Roy, New York, the home of many of the township's earliest settlers,[5] it is the only LeRoy Township statewide.[6] Its name is often spelled "Leroy" and sometimes "Le Roy."[3][7]

The first settlers in what is now LeRoy Township were Paul and Elijah Clapp, who arrived in 1802. LeRoy Township was established in 1820, but it was not made part of Lake County until 1840. During the Civil War, forty men from LeRoy Township served in the Union Army.[5]

The January 1986 Northeastern Ohio earthquake occurred in the southwestern portion of the township.

Government

The township is governed by a three-member board of trustees, who are elected in November of odd-numbered years to a four-year term beginning on the following January 1. Two are elected in the year after the presidential election and one is elected in the year before it. There is also an elected township fiscal officer,[8] who serves a four-year term beginning on April 1 of the year after the election, which is held in November of the year before the presidential election. Vacancies in the fiscal officership or on the board of trustees are filled by the remaining trustees. As of 2019, the board is composed of chairman Chuck Klco and members Heather Shelton and Richard VanPelt, and the clerk is Julie Himmelman.[9]
