Situated in the
southeast corner of Franklin County, Madison Township was
founded at the confluence of three creeks, Blacklick, Big
Walnut and Alum Creek. The Township was established as a
part of the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 but it took until
1810 for the population to grow to 500 which was required to
become a Township in Ohio.
Three Township Trustees and
the Township Clerk are elected to serve the interests of the
community and work to provide the services required by Ohio
law.
Madison Township provides
Fire Prevention, Protection, and Emergency Medical Services
to all of the unincorporated areas of the Township as well
as to the Villages of Groveport and Canal Winchester and
portions of Obetz, Lithopolis, and Pickerington.
The Madison Township Police
Department has one chief and eighteen full time officers
committed to serving and protecting the unincorporated areas
of the Township. Patrol officers and community-policing
officers can be found in all parts of the community on a
daily basis.
The Madison Township Road
Department provides road maintenance and repair to the
township roads and public storm water systems. These
dedicated men are the ones found plowing snow in the winter
and paving and sweeping streets in the summer.
The Madison Township
Trustees, Clerk, Administrator and staff are committed to
working with you to make living and working in Madison
Township a pleasant experience.
