Wiederhold named director of Public Safety Services

BATAVIA, OH (Aug. 10, 2022) — The Board of County Commissioners today promoted Jessica Wiederhold to director of the Clermont County Department of Public Safety Services, effective Aug. 13. The board also recognized John Kiskaden, who is retiring after 12 years as director.
 
“For those of us who have known you for many, many years, we are going to miss you,” said Bonnie Batchler, president, Board of County Commissioners.
 
“I couldn’t have done it without the support of the board,” Kiskaden said. “I appreciate everything the board has done, and prior boards, to make this a better place.”
 
Wiederhold began her career with Clermont County in 2012, serving for five years as a dispatcher. She was an administrative assistant in the Clermont County Public Defender’s Office for about two years before returning to Public Safety Services in 2019 as a project manager. She advanced to program administrator and assistant director before the latest promotion.
 
Wiederhold praised the strong team in the county’s 911 Communications Center and Dominick Daulton, program administrator in Public Safety Services.
 
“I want to thank the board and John for everything you have done for me,” she said.
