At the Dane County Board of Supervisors meeting tonight, the Board approved the appointment of Jamie Kuhn to serve as Interim County Executive.  

Kuhn was appointed by Board Chair Miles last week while he was serving in the Acting County Executive role due to the resignation of County Executive Parisi, following a process outlined in state statute.  Supervisor Chad Kemp (District 32), First Vice Chair served as County Board Chair during this time.  

Remarking on the approval of Kuhn, Chair Miles said, “I believe County Executive Kuhn is the ideal person to lead Dane County over the coming months, her experience will be an asset to the residents of the county as well as to the more than 2,000 county employees that provide invaluable services to residents.  I also want to take this opportunity to thank Supervisor Kemp for his leadership during this transitionary time.  I look forward to working with him throughout this Board term.”  

Kuhn will serve as Interim County Executive until the November 2024 election, when residents of Dane County will elect a County Executive.
