Portage County Auditor Janet Esposito has announced she will retire after her term ends in 2023, bringing to an end a career that spanned over 30 years in county government.

After years of keeping the books for the Portage County Randolph Fair, Esposito was elected as a county commissioner in November 1988. She won that race, besting Kathleen Chandler by fewer than 100 votes. She was first elected as Portage County Auditor in 1994.
