RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to appoint Firefighters into vacant leadership positions,

RECOMMENDATION
Over the past few months, the Fire Department has experienced some officer position vacancies due to
retirement, change in life status, and termination. During this same period, we have interviewed and
promoted several individuals to fill these vacancies. Each of these newly appointed firefighters have been
chosen to fill positions because of their drive and dedication to the Department. We look forward to
watching each of these firefighters grow in their new position and become future leaders of the Fire
Department.
As we move forward, we will evaluate the effectiveness of these positions as we plan for the future to
ensure that we are aligning the Fire Department to best serve the citizens of Rosemount. The newly
appointed firefighters and their corresponding positions are listed below:
Lieutenant Chad Ganfield promoted to Captain at Fire Station #2
Firefighter Jordan Hirman promoted to Lieutenant at Fire Station #1
Firefighter Kelly Ritchie promoted to Lieutenant at Fire Station #1
Firefighter Joe Sanderson promoted to Training Lieutenant at Fire Station #2
