County
In 2026, voters in Ontario County will elect:
-
County Sheriff
-
County Treasurer
-
County Coroners (2)
​​
The County Sheriff is the chief peace officer within Ontario County and is responsible for law enforcement, county jail operation, court security, and serving legal papers. Leading the Sheriff's Department, they operate under state law and the Constitution, serving as the county's primary elected law enforcement executive with broad powers including deputizing other officers and enforcing orders like evictions, with significant civil and criminal duties beyond just patrolling.
The County Treasurer serves as the chief financial officer for the county. Their duties include the accurate collection and deposit of all municipal funds, the careful disbursement of payments for services and projects, and the preparation of comprehensive financial reports. Through their meticulous oversight and unwavering commitment to accountability, they ensure the sound financial standing of our community and the effective use of taxpayer dollars to serve the needs of our residents.
The County Coroner is responsible for determining the cause and manner of death, when an individual in Ontario County dies outside of a hospital or hospice program. Sometimes when an individual dies in a medical setting the cause may be reported to a coroner.
