Consider using motion-activated lighting and security cameras near entry points. Avoid opening the door to unknown individuals; use a door viewer or intercom if available. Request contactless delivery when offered by delivery services. If something feels suspicious, do not open the door—call 911.

County Attorney Stacy Tapke’s Government Academy Accepting Applications

Kenton County Government Academy

NOW ACCEPTING PARTICIPANTS FOR 2019

As an outreach service to the constituents of Kenton County, citizens are invited to take an inside look into the workings of their county government by participating in the Kenton County Government Academy.

Beginning early January, this ten week course will educate participants about all facets of county government. The program features presentations from local elected officials and administrators, and provides unique “behind-the-scenes” tours of vital governmental facilities.  Some of the topics and visits will include: Fiscal Court, Judicial Branch, Planning and Development Services, School Districts, Health District, Library, Animal Shelter, Local fire and police departments, Kenton County Detention Center, Northern Kentucky Water District, Sanitation District No., Cincinnati/Northern KY International Airport, and much more!

“Our goal is to continue a process where the average citizen will have a clear understanding where their tax dollars go, and how the money gets spent.” said Kenton County Attorney Stacy Tapke.  

Over 250 Kenton County residents have graduated from this program. While all have gained valuable knowledge, some have gone on to become city council and committee members, volunteers, and leaders within their own communities. For more information, contact Susan Topmiller at 859.815.1664 or [email protected]
