Chillicothe City Council members on Monday evening, October 14, 2013,
approved plans to change the leadership structure within the Chillicothe
Fire Department as proposed by Fire Chief Darrell Wright.
The department had three assistant fire chiefs under the fire
chief until the recent passing of Joe Darr. Now there are two assistant fire chiefs.
Wright plans to change this to one assistant and two captains, which the
Council approved.
Wright said he compared the organizational structure of nearby fire
departments of similar sizes and that many of them have adopted a similar
organizational structure. The change will take place over a period of
several months, and may take several years to go into effect.
