North Lakes Fire and Rescue Department Chief Darren Woods announced the appointment of four new officers with the North Lakes Department. These promotions were presented to and approved by Aroostook County Administrator Doug Beaulieu.
Promotions were given to the following individuals:
Lieutenant Joshua Belanger was promoted to captain; Firefighter Shaun Merrill was promoted to lieutenant; Firefighter Tim Browning was promoted to lieutenant; and Firefighter Dylan Cyr was promoted to Lieutenant.
Chief Woods stated that these promotions filled empty slots and will assist the department with having the appropriate span of control of officers to firefighters both on emergency scenes and at training classes.
“These men have all shown a big commitment to our department through their willingness to take outside educational opportunities and with all of the extra time that they put in at the fire stations.” said Woods. “They are all well deserving of their titles, and I’m proud of them all.”
