The township provides fire services to the city of Beavercreek. As such, more than 80 percent of the township’s payroll was dedicated to the fire department, including 7 of its top 10 highest paid workers.

An I-Team investigation this year found the ability to cash out unused sick and vacation leave is a rare perk in the private sector, though local governments are on the hook for tens of millions of dollars worth of these payments.

SPECIAL REPORT: Taxpayers on hook for $444M in unused state worker leave

Local governments make payroll with your money, which is why the I-Team has assembled and made available a searchable database of pay for public employees.
