Name and history
It is the only Augusta Township statewide. Augusta Township was formally part of Columbiana County until the creation of Carroll county in 1833.
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,[5] 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.
Education
Students attend the Minerva Local School District in the Northwestern part and Carrollton Exempted Village School District in most of the township.[6]
