Summary

The council accepted the resignation/retirement of Assistant Fire Chief Chris Sheldon, noted his last day as May 4, and requested revisions to the assistant/deputy fire chief job description to include EMS responsibilities and updated training requirements.

Kasson City Council accepted the resignation/retirement of Assistant Fire Chief Chris Sheldon and reviewed an updated job description for the deputy/assistant fire chief role.

The council formally accepted Sheldon—s resignation with regret and thanked him for his years of service; his last reported day was May 4. Members then discussed an updated job description that has not been revised since 2010, asking staff to include EMS responsibilities and to align training requirements for the deputy with those for the fire chief so the deputy is prepared to step into the chief role if needed. Council asked staff to circulate a revised description for later action.

Next steps: staff will circulate proposed job-description edits and return the item to council for formal action once revisions are complete.
