“At 2 p.m. today I was notified that the city of Millersville would be moving in another direction, and my position as fire chief would be terminated, effective immediately. As I clear out my desk and start the search for new work, and possibly a new home, I pray for the citizens of Millersville to have patience and understanding during this time. I want to thank everyone for their support and efforts over the past year. I wish the city good luck and safety in all its future dealings.” – Matt Stewart
Kroll also indicated that Millersville citizens can be confident that fire and medical services will remain uninterrupted during this transition.
