Rural Metro Fire has a new chief.

Jeffrey Devlin has been with Rural Metro since 1990, serving as a firefighter, paramedic and more. He’s also been the assistant chief of operations for the last five years.

“Rural Metro Fire has an over 45-year history of excellence in serving Knox County. My intention is we will be Knox County’s Fire Department for 45 more,” Devlin said. “It is my honor to lead the men and women of our organization as we continue to serve the citizens of Knox County.”

Rural Metro started in 1977 and has served Knox County and Farragut since then. The agency is expected to host a “meet and greet” with Devlin on July 29 at the Farragut Community Center (239 Jamestowne Blvd.) from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.
