under the management and control of the county agricultural society, and may erect

of county commissioners may erect or repair buildings or otherwise improve the site
and pay the rental of it, or contribute to or pay any other form of indebtedness of
the society, if the director of agriculture has certified to the board that the county
agricultural society is complying with all laws and rules governing the operation
of county agricultural societies. The board may appropriate from the county's general fund or permanent improvement
fund, and may appropriate revenue from a tax levied under division (T) of section 5739.09 of the Revised Code , any amount that it considers necessary for any of those purposes, provided that
