A familiar face will be the new Fire Chief in Prince George.
Deputy Chief Cliff Warner has been selected for PG’s Fire Rescue Services.
He will start at the top position at the end of January following the departure of incumbent Fire Chief John Iverson who is retiring after 35 years of service.
“Prince George City Council thanks Chief Iverson for his 35 years of exemplary service and strong leadership,” said Lyn Hall, Mayor of Prince George.
“Deputy Chief Warner has an impressive record of service, including leading Fire Rescue through the wildfire evacuations in 2017 and 2018, the Covid-19 pandemic, and the transition to the new Fire Hall #1. We wish the very best to Chief Iverson as he embarks on his well-earned retirement and congratulates Deputy Chief Warner on his selection as Fire Chief.”
Warner has 26 years of service including serving in every senior management position.
With these changes, the City will be undertaking a search for two deputy chief positions for Prince George Fire Rescue Services in the coming months.
