The Lacombe Fire Department has a new chief.
Eric Cole was appointed to the role by the City of Lacombe, effective April 1.
City officials say Cole has an extensive background in both the administrative and operational components of emergency response, both in the public and private sectors.
“The experience that Chief Cole brings to the City of Lacombe is extensive, in both industry and as a career firefighter,” said Director of Corporate Services Diane Piche. “We look forward to working with Chief Cole, and are excited to see him build on the contributions provided by past and present members of the Lacombe Fire Department.”
