Kenosha City/County Joint Services is the result of a combined effort between the city and county governments. It was established in 1982 as a separate government agency to provide the safety support services for the Kenosha City Police and Fire Departments, Kenosha County Sheriff's Department, and various other law enforcement and emergency services agencies. Joint Services is divided into five departments: Administration, Communications, Records, Fleet Maintenance, and the Evidence/Identification Bureau. A total of 73 people are employed by Joint Services with the Communications and Records departments being staffed on a 24 hours a day, 7 days a week basis.
A governing body oversees the operation of Joint Services. The Joint Services' Board is comprised of three county and three city government representatives. The seventh member is an individual who is mutually appointed by the Mayor and County Executive.
The Joint Services' Board employs a director who is responsible for the day-to-day operation of Joint Services.
