On August 10, 2009, the Miami County Republican Central Committee appointed Pat Quillen the new Miami County Treasurer.  Quillen comes to the office with over 10 years experience as the elected Concord Township fiscal officer.  Quillen along with two other candidates gave the Central Committee solid choices for the appointment. 

Quillen touted her experience working for the township, her work with the Miami County Township Association as it's Secretary, her work with a Troy law firm in its accounting department and her financial work with a local Doctor.  She also informed the Committee that as Conord Township fiscal officier she had been audited by the Ohio Auditor of State ever year and never had a finding.  She has experience in fund accounting and has worked with the township budget that totaled over 2 million dollars.

Pat said she looks forward to working with the county elected officials and will continue to work within the management team concept that has served the county so well.

Pat lives with her husband Steve in Concord Township.
