(2) Section 111.15 of the Revised Code, excluding division (D) of that section, if either of the following apply: (a) The rule concerns the day-to-day staff procedures and operations of the department or financial and operational matters between the department and another government entity or a private entity receiving a grant from the department, unless the statute authorizing the rule requires that it be adopted in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code; (b) The statute authorizing the rule requires that the rule be adopted in accordance with section 111.15 of the Revised Code and, by the terms of division (D) of that section, division (D) of that section does not apply to the rule. (3) Section 111.15 of the Revised Code, including division (D) of that section, if the statute authorizing the rule requires that the rule be adopted in accordance with that section and the rule is not exempt from the application of division (D) of that section. (B) Except as otherwise required by the Revised Code, the adoption of a rule in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code does not make the department of job and family services, the department of children and youth, a county family services agency, or a local board subject to the notice, hearing, or other requirements of sections 119.06 to 119.13 of the Revised Code. As used in this division, "local board" has the same meaning as in section 6301.01 of the Revised Code. Last updated January 1, 2025 at 6:34 AM
