Suzanne Greathouse, Chair of the Board of Commissioners, Northshore Fire Protection District 16, reports that,
Fire Chief Jim Torpin retired from the District with over 26 years of distinguished service - most recently he was instrumental in helping the District achieve a AAA Bond rating.
He had a comprehensive succession plan in place and has been working with the District staff over the last few years to ensure a smooth transition.
Per the succession plan, Deputy Chief Eric Magnuson has assumed the role of Acting Chief.
The Board of Commissioners is discussing next steps and will review all options including regionalization.
Through thoughtful consideration the Commission will endeavor to make a decision that provides the best service for our citizens.
