COMMUNITY AWARENESS PROGRAMS

To increase Weights and Measures awareness among consumers, the Franklin County Auditor's Office participates in a variety of outreach or educational programs to help explain the role of the county sealer and the protection consumers and merchants receive. The purpose of these events is to remind citizens they have rights as well as responsibilities in the marketplace. The Franklin County Auditor's Weights and Measures Department teams up with local businesses to host "Weights and Measures Awareness Days," to show how government and business work together to maintain fairness and keep the marketplace in balance.
