After eight years, Shrewsbury will no longer be an automatic shoo-in for the title of "Municipality with the Most Appropriately-Named Fire Chief."
Town Manager Dan Morgado recently began looking for a new fire chief to replace Gerald LaFlamme, who is retiring June 1. "La flamme," of course, means "the flame" in French.
According to an advertisement for the post, available online at the town's web site, the salary offered is $97,290. The new chief will oversee four captains, 32 sworn firefighters, and 12 call firefighters dispersed among three fire stations.
