The current Acting Fire Chief is honoured to take over the position.
Ryan Murrell will become the official Fire Chief once Ken Kurz retires at the end of the calendar year.
Murrell says the public won’t see much of a difference from the outside, but there may be some internal changes based on their focus.
He stresses the Dryden Fire Service is a proud community service and he feels privileged that he can lead a great team.
