Safety Service Director Weston Dodds

Wes Dodds
Wes Dodds of Bellefontaine replaced David Henry as Safety Service Director, effective July 4th, 2021.

In 2014, Dodds was named the city's first code enforcement officer.

He quickly developed the role into an integral part of the administrative team for the city. Besides his duties with code enforcement, he took on additional responsibilities with the city administration. Wes also worked with capital projects and grant writing as well as various other economic development programs.

In addition to his daily job duties, Dodds has represented the City of Bellefontaine on several local and regional boards including the Bellefontaine Board of Zoning Appeals, Logan County Land Bank, Logan-Union-Champaign Regional Planning Commission (2nd VP), and Ohio Code Enforcement Officials Association (VP). Dodds is also a graduate of the Leadership Logan County Program.​
​
Prior to his employment with the city, Wes spent seven years as a land use planner for the Logan-Union-Champaign Regional Planning Commission where he primarily assisted townships, villages, and cities with zoning and mapping. He also served as a corrections officer at the Logan County Sheriff’s Office for 6 years. In all, Wes has nearly 20 years experience with local government in Logan County.

Mayor Stahler said, “Wes has been a vital part of our city team over the past 7 years and I believe he comes to this career with all of the right credentials. As a municipality, the various departments work well with one another. As Bellefontaine continues to gain momentum, in so many categories, we’re glad to have Wes in his new position.”
​
Dodds is a graduate of Benjamin Logan High School and a lifelong resident of the Bellefontaine area. He is an avid golfer and enjoys fishing, outdoor activities, and reading. 

Dodds may be reached at wdodds@ci.bellefontaine.oh.us​ or by calling the city building at 937-592-6807.
