City of Fort Myers Fire Department Fire Chief Tracy McMillion.

The City of Fort Myers has a new Fire Chief.

The department announced the appointment of Tracy McMillion to the position last month. McMillion was tapped to be FMFD's interim chief in November, following the resignation of former chief John Caufield. 

McMillion spoke with WGCU’s Andrea Perdomo about his career as a fireman and his goals as the new leader of the department.
