Clingerman is a 12-year senior financial planner at Transamerica Financial Advisors, according to the township. He earned a bachelor’s degree in business from Miami University and a master of business administration from the University of Dayton.
Clingerman was sworn in at Tuesday’s meeting.
Trustee President Terry Posey Jr. said all three candidates who applied for the position brought something “very significant” to the role and any of them could have been chosen positively by the board.
“Mr. Clingerman has some experience that wasn’t matched by the others,” Posey said. “That’s not to say it’s in excess or any different than the others, it’s just a function of his individual background.”
Besides working closely with trustees (the other three elected positions in the township), the fiscal officer manages finance department personnel, maintains township records and is in charge of payroll, issuing checks and waste disposal service charge collections, among other duties.
Clingerman will fill the unexpired term of Aaron Newell, which ends March 31, 2024. Newell resigned Dec. 9, citing a need for more family time and professional pursuits.
“I am committed to serving my community, my neighbors and the business community,” Clingerman said in a release. “I hope to bring a fresh perspective that will allow me to be a good steward of township funds.”
He and his wife, Ann, are 40-year residents of Miami Twp. They have four grown children.
