to pay such rent as the secretary of state determines to be 2522
appropriate. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Revised 2523
Code to the contrary, any county may enter into such a lease, and 2524
any such lease is legally sufficient to obligate the county for 2525
the term stated in the lease. Any such lease constitutes an 2526
agreement described in division (E) of section 152.24 of the 2527
Revised Code.2528
