Sheridan Fire Chief Resigns To Save The City Money

Fire Rescue workers are known for making huge personal sacrafices to save others... but Sheridan's fire chief has sacraficed his job to save the city money. In a letter addressed to Mayor Dave Kinskey on Thursday, Fire Chief Patrick Reitz said his decision to resign is based on budgetary needs of the city and the fire department, and he recommends that the position not be refilled. Reitz said in a news release that the department can be operated using a single chief, instead of the current fire chief/emergency services director and division chief of operations positions. He recommends the current division chief of operations be appointed interim head of the department.
