Fond du Lac County has hired a new emergency management director. The county board has approved the hiring of John Ross to the post. Fond du Lac County executive, Sam Kaufman, says Ross is the former emergency management director in Clark and Jackson counties. He replaces Amy Haase who stepped down last month to accept a job in the private sector after a little more than two years on the job. Meanwhile, Kaufman says the position is being restructured, with dispatch becoming part of the Sheriff’s Office and and a separate full-time emergency management director.
