A longtime familiar name will be stepping away from his role. Below is the announcement from Sheriff Fitzgerald about his decision:

I am writing to share some personal news. This past Friday, I informed the Governor of my decision to retire from my position as Sheriff of Barron County, with my last day being June 1, 2025. I anticipate that the appointment process to fill the Sheriff’s position will open either today or tomorrow.
I have accepted an exciting new opportunity with Mosaic Technologies and will be joining their team over the next month.
I want to express my sincere gratitude for your incredible support throughout my time as Sheriff. Your contributions have been vital to the work we do in our community. My new role at Mosaic Technologies will be in public relations, so I look forward to continuing to collaborate with many of you in the future. I will be sure to share my new contact information with you before my departure. My department is is a great spot where my departure will not affect the direction it is going and where a smooth transition can occur.
Thank you all again for what you have done for me, my department and our community.
