Message from Fire Chief Jeremy Lami

Happy New Year! 2022 is well underway and Mardi Gras is right around the corner. In the coming weeks, we will be releasing the Strategic Plan for the Mobile Fire-Rescue Department and it will provide a roadmap for the future.

There’s never a finish line and it’s imperative we continue to focus on improving. I’m excited about a transparent document with strategic initiatives that provide clarity regarding the vision and future of MFRD.

The cover story this month is focused on recognizing our public safety dispatchers and it’s well deserved. They are an important part of our team and the first link in our response model. If you have a moment, reach out to them and thank them for their service or schedule a visit to 911 and learn more about their role. I would like to thank them for a job well done and their unwavering commitment to public safety.

I sincerely appreciate all that you do. I pray daily for all of you and look forward to the rest of 2022!

Keep moving forward.
